Bio
.. .. .... .. .. .. "SN&R contributor Cary Rodda says of Hot Pistol, "It's awesome to see a group of young guys who understand how to make rockin music." And they rock something fierce, taking their lead from acts like Jet and AC/DC. Hot Pistol may look like the Mars Volta, but its music is more T. Rex (right down to a cover of 20th Century Boy). This is the sexy rock n roll thats been missing from the scene for years, a style that would make the rock gods proud.".. - ..Sacramento News & Review.... .. "Hot Pistol has recently captured the hard rockin' heart of the local scene and threatens to become Sacramento's next big band. Hot Pistol puts on a frenzied and feverish live show with their 1970's style hard drivin' bad boy rock and roll. Fans of the Strokes, the Cult and Led Zeppelin will dig what this new gang of local rockers have to offer.".. - ..KWOD 106.5.... .. "Hot Pistol is a new young band in Sacramento that makes rock 'n roll sexy again. Garage Rock meets Led Zeppelin. T-Rex meets Nirvana. It's head bangin rock 'n roll that youre NOT embarrassed to like. These four young lads are the band that all the other bands are starting to notice.".. - ..Downtown Sacramento Partnership.... .. "Hot Pistol may have just listened to a few Zeppelin and Doors albums before they engineered their own soulful, blues rock sound that makes Artsweek long even more for a time when doing Jim Morrison was still a possibility.".. - Rachael R. Bogert, ..The California Aggie.... .. "Also worth mentioning is the local alternative band Hot Pistol. The garage rock quartet almost stole the show as their hard hitting riffs and charismatic personas warmed up the meager mob. Sounding like a cross between the Black Crows and Rise Against, the Sacramento natives demonstrated their up and coming status and may be the most exciting band in the area today.".. - Josh Huggett, ..The State Hornet.... .. "A little short of midway through the evening, this quartet of scruffs who looked like they'd stepped out of a circa-1973 Robert Crumb comic about disaffected stoner youths took the stage and proceeded to tear into a short set of the best Bic-flickin buttrock this scribes heard in several moons, or at least since Magnolia Thunderfinger broke up. ".. - Jackson Griffith, ..Sacramento News & Review....
