About Me

HotKid's Shiloh Harrison and Peter McIntosh have thrown themselves on the alter of Canadian indie rock, bridging the gap between traditional country twang and melodic noise. In the spirit of hard working bands like Eric's Trip and Change of Heart, Cambridge Ontario's rock'n roll life line are doing things the most honest and genuine way they can. Over the past two years this gutsy two-piece has made their mark throughout Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada, supporting the release of their full length debut, Got It To Give. An indie rock tour de force, Got It To Give represents a collection of works that in some imagined golden era of garage rock or old school country would have only been found on multiple 45s. Independently released in 2006 the album was re-released fall 2007 by Quebec City's premiere indie label, P572 and Local Distribution. This winter 2008, HotKid is gearing up to go into the studio with producer, and C'mon front man, Ian Blurton. Rick White (Eric's Trip, Elevator) is also on board, having offered to mix project.
