HOT PANDA - Garage / Indie / Pop

Hot Panda have literally driven four tour vans into the ground. They have taken their ferocious live show across North America over 10 times, as well as completing a tour of Europe in 2009 (opening for notorious Detroit rockers The Von Bondies), and a second tour of Europe in the fall of 2011 playing the Reeperbahn festival in Hamburg (as well as dates in France, Austria and the UK). The band has played some of North America's premier showcase festivals, including South By South West in Austin (where they were selected by Esquire Magazine as one of fifteen hot new emerging artists of the 2011 festival), CMJ Music Marathon in New York City, Pop Montreal, Canadian Music Festival and North By North East in Toronto, Sled Island in Calgary, and Halifax Pop Explosion. They've also been happy to share the stage with bands such as Art Brut, The Raveonettes, Grimes, Chad Van Gaalen, Tokyo Police Club, Electric 6, PS I Love You, Julie Doiron, Women, You Say Party!, and many more.
