EDDIE & THE HOT RODS
Formed back in Essex in 1975 by Barrie Masters and Steve Nicol, Eddie and the Hot Rods quickly established themselves as one of the most energetic, hard hitting live bands around. ‘Teenage Depression’ and ‘I Might Be Lying’ proved that they could cut it on record too but it was their Top 10 single ‘Do Anything You Wanna Do’, that cemented their legendary status and still features on compilations to this very day.They ushered in the UK punk rock scene and inspired a generation of teenagers to form a band. The band split in 1981but appeared together on occasions over the years and recorded the album ‘Gasoline Days’ in 1996

Sadly, Barrie Masters died in October 2019 and the remaining members took time out to grieve. As the weeks turned to months and the Covid 19 pandemic took hold the remaining band members were constantly reminded by fans and promoters that they had all been Eddie and the Hot Rods for over 20 years and encouraged them to keep the legacy of both the band and of Barrie alive, this got them thinking ….” could we?should we??” During those months of Covid lock down, Chords UK bassist Mic Stoner joined in place of Ian ‘Dipster’ Dean who became the permanent lead singer. The new songs came thick and fast as the band hit the studio for the first time in almost twenty years and a new chapter was written in the history of Eddie and the Hot Rods. ‘Guardians Of The Legacy’ is the result of those recordings .
