    A/S/L, the debut EP from The Hillary Watts Riot, introduces the world to Freak Pop - Sonic Youth meets Hall & Oates, showered in Devo's pheromones. Nameless drones lay down funky drum and bass grooves, explosive guitar sonics, and dirty disco synth lines to back up their queen bee, Miss Hillary Watts.

    What the press is saying about The Hillary Watts Riot:

    “'Tube Top,' The Hillary Watts Riot: The first single off the band’s debut EP, 'A/S/L,' boasts perhaps the funkiest bass line in Kansas City. 'Tube Top' is a groovy, loungey song that moves into a Blondie-esque break, maintaining an unconventional but superior sense of musicianship throughout.”
    Michelle Bacon - The Kansas City Star

    “With a pinup doll look and sunglasses-at-night image, the pedal-heavy band kicks in your teeth with plenty of reverb and a chaotic sound. With glimpses of punk reflecting off the glitters of glam, the band’s sound bounces all over the place. 1990s sound bites bleed through the 1980s influences. Mixed with their witty banter, this band is entertainment at its best.”
    Joshua Hammond - The Deli

about

The Hillary Watts Riot Kansas City, Missouri

Hard grooves, off-kilter rhythms, and sonic explosions underscore tales of the odd done by the strange: killer bees on a rampage; hirsute, gun-toting cadillac drivers; funky odes to tube tops; bubble boys in love.

Looking like a cross between a 1980's Pat Benatar and a prom queen, Hillary Watts fronts a band of nameless Drones. Together, they entice you into your van and drive you away.
