   About The Hat Madder
THE HAT MADDER


BIOGRAPHY 2009

The Hat Madder, Lansing, Michigan’s crème de le crème for original Rock n’ Roll, bring catchy hooks into a realm of danger and excitement with their style of hard-hitting yet explorative, whimsical song-craft. An All-Star cast of players launch an auditory assault on the listener and show no mercy with their infectious melodies and hard to forget choruses. As a song ends it immediately plants the seed for another rollercoaster ride of a listen.

2008’s “Friend of the Devil”, The Hat Madder’s debut full length CD, provides a foundation shaking introduction to their brand of quirky, energetic and experimental Rock n’ Roll. 15 tracks of thoughtful, memorable song-crafted explosions and moody heartfelt contrast.

So it is no surprise that their current upcoming release “Rogue Notes & Phones” has made itself a home as the band’s second major accomplishment. With it’s hard to swallow subject matter, swirling sonic landscapes, jerky, angular transitions and shear vocal power. “Rogue Notes & Phones” serves not only as a testament to the band’s outspoken disregard for trendy sound-a-likes but also as an overall taste of their uncompromising confidence in what they bring to the table.

The full-length record “Friend of the Devil” and brand new installment, “Rogue Notes & Phones” are nothing short of a wonder. In-your-face rock. Temperamental yet introspective. Melodic but hungry for a chord change. Unexpected abruptness, leaving the listener twisting for more.

2oo8 has brought the band an international tour de France; spots on compilation CD’s with the likes of The Deadly Sins, Modey Lemon and Of Montreal; a music video written and performed for Harley Davidson owners shown in front of 50,000 patrons at the 105th celebration in Milwaukee, WI and a constantly growing grassroots following at shows in and around Michigan.
