The Hot Sauce Committee combines 90's Hip Hop, with guitars and club beats for a high-energy hot sauce experience. With Serv on the lead vocals, Pauly on drums, Bender on guitar, DJ KevinPhoenix, and welcoming the last member of the Sauce, Roland on Bass. These boys bring a crazy fun show to any stage they are on.
How long have you all known each other? and how did you meet?
-------------------------------------------------------
Bender and Pauly head out one night in Chicago. They end up at an underground party where Kevin Phoenix was spinning classic Hip Hop from the 90's. While watching the DJ, they thought to themselves how fun it would be to play these songs live. As they spend the night talking to
Phoenix the idea gets planted. Learn 90's Hip Hop music, add some R&B pop songs and deliver it with a live band... all that is left is to find a great front man. Like thousands of other bands in town, Serv was playing some shows here and there trying hard to get noticed. Bender and Pauly saw Serv fronting his band at the Elbo Room, when they approached him after the show to say: "We can all do this better. More shows, more audience and more fun." The first rehearsal did not include a bass player. Only the DJ tracks, the guitars, front man Serv and Pauly on drums. Teaming up with KMA management they began developing the idea, the show and the brand. Not long after that, Roland was introduced on Bass and the group was completed: The Hot Sauce Committee.
What inspired you to make music together?
-------------------------------------
Saved By The Bell, the original 90210, etc... We are also inspired by the idea of hosting an event, where people love and appreciate the 90's as much as we do. Dance your ass off, sing along and be part of the show.
The Hot Sauce loves to invite the girls on stage with them.
What separates your band from all the other bands out there?
----------------------------------------------------
What separates the HOT SAUCE form other bands is the nostalgic sounds from the 90's brought to you with live guitars, an exceptional frontman, and the fundamental idea that we believe music from the 90's was the singular most ridiculous and fun era there has been.
