Edit history

This summer, Perth surf rock band, The Hot Spell are releasing their debut album Swelter. The band was formed in late 2014 in the back room of Terrence Clayton’s house, not far from Fremantle. Guitarist Paul Marciniac’s mash up of surf and punk rock influences such as Dick Dale, The Ramones, Rocket From The Crypt and The Scientists, form the starting riff’s for most of the bands music. Casey Paterson’s sultry, soul inspired lead vocals are the icing on the cake. Following a series of home demos in 2015 and the release of a double A-side at the end of 2016, the band embarked on recording a full-length album in early 2017. Mixed and mastered by Al Smith at Bergerk Studios, Swelter captures shades of summer fun and dark surf. With the CD due for independent release on December 23rdnThe Hot Spell are set for a magic summer!
