A need for connection and creativity brought Illinois based rock band Hotter Than June together in 2005. Five friends influenced by emo and post hardcore bands such as Dashboard Confessional, Taking Back Sunday, Senses Fail and Thrice - Hotter Than June shaped the connection to their fans through engaging live performances and emotive lyrics.
Over the course of the next three years, Hotter Than June released two EPs: Leave All The Pretty Things Alone and Back Seat Classic. Divorce, college and distance contributed to the band going their separate ways in 2008.
The members grew up and put down roots. They started families and careers. But, the desire and craving to create and connect never fully went away. Ironically, in June of 2022, Hotter Than June decided it was time to resurrect a part of themselves that had been lying dormant for nearly 14 years. And in 2023 they released four singles, Glass Water Pill Swallow, Sweet Revenge, Culprit and What If We Change.
The musical fingerprint that is Hotter Than June is still found in their lyrical content, melodies and music. However, all of the singles are unique from one another and have their own story to tell. Hotter Than June is back and are currently recording their debut full length album appropriately titled, Waiting For A Revival.
