Hot Beds

About Me

Hot Beds formed in 2008 to manufacture voyeuristic anthems of love, lust and loss. Taking the form of dirty encounters between alternative rock and industrial pop, we've played across the UK and appeared on various radio shows and download charts, including No.2 on the Tourdates chart throughout December 2008 with 'Frantic'.

Our debut album, "I Smell Burning", is available now on iTunes, Napster, Amazon and LastFM.
