Formed in the spring of 2007 in Brighton England, The Hotlines play pop punk with a big 50’s influence inspired by the Beach Boys and the Ramones.
To date they have released two split 7inch singles, the first with Italian pop punks Radio Days on NTP records and the second with legendary American punk rockers The Queers on Devils Jukebox records. They have also had a debut CDEP released on Knowhere records in the USA and Bubblegum Attack in South America and have had tracks featured on the Groovie Ghoulies tribute album released by Kamikaze records and the Cabana 1 records compilation, Where The Fun Never Sets Vol. 2
During this time they have toured the UK and Europe playing at both the Rotterdam Rumble and Monster Zero Mash festivals and have been proud to share a stage with, amongst others The Apers, The Manges, Chixdiggit, Surfin’ Lungs, The Zatopeks, Radio Days, Sugus, The Accelerators, The Lost Patrol Band, The Loyalties, Spookey & Marky Ramone.
The Hotlines have a debut album recorded with a release date scheduled for Autumn ‘09 and are making plans to return to Europe later in the year to promote its release.
