BIOGRAPHY

“Putting the swagger back into UK rock n’ roll, The Hot One Two are an act you need to be checking out” (
BBC Introducing ).
The past year has been a defining stretch for The Hot One Two. Closing out 2025 with the release of their
most ambitious album to date, Virtues, the band pushed their signature hard-hitting rock to new ground,
dropping a record built on heavy riffs and raw, anthemic energy.
They took that momentum straight to the stage with a massive two-leg UK tour, tearing through packed
rooms across the country and proving once again why their live show is impossible to ignore.
Now, heading into the final stretch of 2026, the band is keeping the pedal down! This autumn sees the
launch of ‘The For You Tour’—a run named after the standout track from Virtues and built entirely around
the fans. For this leg, the crowd takes the wheel: fans are picking the setlists for each night and getting
their names printed directly onto the official tour merch.
The Hot One Two are heading back out on the road louder than ever, bringing the people who built this
band right along with them.

BACKGROUND TO THE SONG
Following the successful release of their second studio album ‘Virtues’ last October, The Hot One Two have
selected “For You” as their next official single.
This song is a heartfelt homage to the fans, friends, and supporters who make their journey possible. Written
as a tribute to the bands passion for taking to the road, playing the music they love, and connecting with
amazing people along the way, the track serves as the anchor for the upcoming “For You” Tour kicking off in
October 2026. Putting audiences at the centre, the band is giving fans the power to vote on the setlists they
want to hear at every show. The song will be released as a music and lyric video on October the 1st, so you
really have no excuse not to sing every word out on the road this autumn!
