Eddie and the Hot Rods play The Continental in Preston with special guests Department S and Sweet Knuckle.
Eddie and the Hot Rods play The Continental in Preston on Saturday 7 November, with Department S and Sweet Knuckle on as special guests. The show is in the venue's Boatyard event space, and it starts at 20:00.
If the name doesn't ring a bell, the Hot Rods are one of the most recognisable names from the English rock scene, often cited as punk progenitors. They've been at it for four decades, with a career that saw them land four UK top forty hit singles. Back in the day, they toured the US alongside The Ramones, Talking Heads and The Police, and their following inspired bands like Def Leppard and The Undertones to pick up instruments. That hard and fast style, crossing R'n'B, rock and blues, is still there today.
They're not coming alone, either. Department S and Sweet Knuckle are both on the bill as special guests, so there's more than one band to hear across the night. Between the three of them, it's a full evening of live music rather than just a single set.
