Graham Sutherland, GSAM's man at the helm (and future Rock Legend) was interviewed in The Advertiser about his band, The Hottest State.ROTHERHAM guitarist and songwriter Graham Sutherland is hoping for success after he and his band The Hottest State officially launched their debut EP.
Graham, who works at Rotherham’s Get Sorted Music Academy in Westgate, launched the four-track offering with a gig at The Garage Bar in Doncaster.
The EP, which is available on digital download, features Graham on lead guitar, vocalist Paul Morris, guitarists John Crawford and Richard Myers, drummer Steven Leary and keyboard player Robin Brown.
“We are all very excited about our first recording that was produced by recording engineer Darren Ferris at the Higher Rhythm Studios on Netherhall Road in Doncaster,” said Graham.
It has already had air play on several local radio stations. We would like to reach a wider audience and our ambition now is to record an album.”
The Hottest State formed in 2008 and has built an enthusiastic following in South Yorkshire.
American rock giants like Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young have influenced the group while legendary British bands like The Who and Cream continue to be a source of inspiration to their writing and playing.
