We love playing music

We know what songs work at weddings and when to play them.
The musicians in HOT DAMN! have each spent the better part of a decade playing weddings and functions around Newcastle, the Hunter Valley and the east coast of NSW.
We formed by bringing together musicians from Colour Theory and Aubrey to create HOT DAMN!
You love music, we love music, but agreeing on the “number one dance floor song” can incite family feuds to say the least, so leave that to us.
Give us a few favourites, a few you can’t stand and anything important. We use that, plus years of watching actual dance floors, to build the night rather than asking you to programme the whole thing.
Jake handles your enquiry from the first email through to the gig — and he’s also the saxophonist in the band. He studied at the Conservatorium, teaches woodwind for a living and writes arrangements for HOT DAMN!.
The band performs with a full three-piece horn section as standard, and that sound has become a pretty defining part of what HOT DAMN! is.
HOT DAMN! is part of HITSRIGHT, a Newcastle-based collective of bands built around the same close-knit crew of musicians.
Yes, We travel
Based in Newcastle, HOT DAMN! can perform anywhere in the Hunter Valley, Newcastle, Central Coast, Sydney and broader NSW — and further if the gig makes sense. Ceremony music is available, as is MCing for an additional fee, and we keep music going between sets. Check your date today and we can give you a quote specifically for your venue.
