BAND OF THE WEEK! - HOOKAH THE FUZZ - UK



When I was first drawn to these guys, I sat down and listened to their tracks. All I can is...when will they tour the USA so I can buy tickets! 


Si and Ross set out to form a band five years ago. After various incarnations and efforts trying to find like-minded musicians with an ambitious work ethic they were eventually joined by Roger (four years ago), and Alexander (two years ago).
Once Alexander had joined it was apparent that this was the band they had envisaged five years ago. Under a new name and a new style of writing this was the start of HookahTheFuzz.

The core of the band originates from Birmingham, England. This area is renowned for being the home of heavy metal with Ozzy, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest all hailing from Birmingham, and others such as Led Zeppelin and Slash all coming from the surrounding areas. It's no surprise that heavy music is a defining influence on HookahTheFuzz.
Just as these bands created a culture in the Midlands all those years ago, HookahTheFuzz wish to do the same, combining new influences from other genres and modern culture to make a powerful new statement.
2010 marks the release of our debut self-titled album....it will be a busy year ahead :)
