Kinda Like Godzilla

About Me


Formed in Phoenix Arizona in 1996, 500 Hats set out to be a band with a signature sound. They have now played for almost twelve years around the valley of the sun, throughout Arizona, and Illinois and have released four recordings. "The Hats" as they are often referred to by their friends and fans perform a less predictable set of classic rock covers than most bands and a healthy dose of their always catchy original songs as well. Strectching musical genres from Jazz to Hard rock the Hats are a band that has to be experienced live to be fully understood and appreciated.
