HotWax have released their “relentless and addictive” new single ‘One More Reason’

HotWax have released new single ‘One More Reason’, the third track from their upcoming debut album ‘Hot Shock’.

The track arrives alongside a video directed by Josh Quinton, featuring underground figure Princess Julia and styling by Greta. The band are set to celebrate with a launch party at London’s The Divine, which will include special guests and limited edition merchandise inspired by the video.

Speaking about the track, singer Tallulah Sim-Savage explains: “When we were at Stella’s [Mozgawa, of Warpaint] studio in Joshua Tree we were jamming together and Lola started with this bass riff, instantly Stella said ‘We have to record this’. We got it down as a jam idea and over the next months we wrote One More Reason. We wanted it to feel like the opening song at a festival set, we wanted it to be relentless and addictive. It’s about loving someone so much you kinda hate it, which is relentless and addictive.”

‘Hot Shock’, due 7th March, follows two EPs released in 2023, which saw the band play over 150 live shows including appearances at Reading & Leeds, Mad Cool, All Points East, and Download.
