If The Black Keys helped bring blues-rock back to the masses in recent years, Hot Bodies in Motion definitely adds something new and palpable to the genre. Based out of Seattle, they describe their sound as “Baby-makin’ mammal funk, laced with old-school blues roots” and it’s a potent concoction.

Hotbodies From: Chillville, United States Los Angeles kooky electro ensemble Hotbodies have cooked up a storm with their first single 'Lollipop' . Starting off like an electro torch song it soon morphs into a Soulwax mainlining Ariel Pink ode to the world changing medicinal wonders of Lollipops.
