The Hottman Sisters to play Jewelbox Theater on October 14th
THE HOTTMAN SISTERS, a three-piece indie pop/rock band centered around melodic guitar, synth and tight harmonies, has released their new single “Fire,” on 8/24. “Fire” is available now via all digital and streaming platforms and the group has paired the personal track with a music video; watch the video for “Fire” now on YouTube. In support of their single, the band will play several shows throughout the US. They will make several stops in the Pacific Northwest; a full list of dates is below. They will play The Jewelbox Theater in Seattle on October 14th. Ticket information is available here.
“I wrote ‘Fire’ at a time when I was leaving behind an old version of myself,” shares lead singer-songwriter Jessica Hottman. “In this song, I am allowing fire to consume what has held me back from becoming who I was made to be.”
The song and video first debuted on Atwood Magazine who wrote, “The indie pop trio emerges today with a fresh sound and dazzling look: ‘Fire’ is confident and fierce, an intense introduction to an artistry we cannot wait to fall for over the next few years. Blending buoyant pop melodies and big hooks with rock guitars, keyboard beds, and rich harmonies…‘Fire’ burns the past as a means of finding freedom – facilitating self-discovery, renewal, and transformation. An unshackling of mental chains, it’s a new beginning for a band whose bright future is still unwritten.”
Sisters Jessica and Heather Hottman have grown up with music an integral part of their lives. Raised in Omaha, NE (where they still call home), the two sang in church every Sunday along with their mother and younger sister, performed at a variety of local events, and spent countless hours jamming and writing music in the basement of their house. The years of developing and fine-tuning their music have paid off as in more recent years THE HOTTMAN SISTERS have performed at SXSW, theMaha Music Festival and shared line-ups with Run The Jewels, The New Pornographers, and Belle and Sebastian, among others.
THE HOTTMAN SISTERS, now complete with drummer Ed Getzlaff, will release an EP titled Louder on September 28. They’ll also kick off a national tour, starting in their hometown of Omaha, NE, the same day and will make stops in Spokane, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco and Los Angeles.
