Hot Shorts make a welcome return to the studio for a live as you like Session.

Started in 2013 by founder members Chris Killen (author of In Real Life and The Bird Room), Peet Earnshaw (Polytechnic, Driver Drive Faster, Butcher the Bar) and Rich Pratt, there have been a couple of line-up changes with Lara Williams (formerly of PINS and author of short story collection, Treats) replacing Rich on drums, and Joel Nicholson (Butcher The Bar) joining on guitar.

Having released an EP (web design) on cassette in 2014, followed by a summer Christmas single (Sex Christmas) in the August of the same year, they built their reputation making online videos and playing shows with the likes of Ezra Furman, Kiran Leonard, Trust Fund and The Lovely Eggs. As well as stand-out sets at Sounds From The Other City and Manchester's own Carefully Planned festival.
