About Me

You can help HECTOR out by posting this html link on your space...and we thanx ya from da bottom of our hearts...

Playing the raunchiest bass this side of Motorhead's Lemmy Kilmister with a voice to match, Andrea Hector A.K.A. HECTOR is making a big noise with the CD Bitch, Bitch, Bitch.
HECTOR is a Canadian duo consisting of bassist HECTOR and drummer Darryl R. Shackelly. The duo began collaborating in 1999 on a four track, the same year Andrea was short listed for a rotation in Courtney Love's group Hole.
After success with their CD Destructika, including a featuring track on the video game "Steer Madness", the duo recorded Bitch, Bitch, Bitch, in February 2004, which combines pop/rock sensibilities along with additional programmed electronic effects.
In the meantime, the duo is in the process of writing new material and actively searching out international label interest and radio airplay world wide.
