Unsigned Hype: Hotspur Tops Charts

Washington, DC (Joe Mach) - Just one month after the independent release of their infectious debut album "Beta, " DC-based power-pop group Hotspur is starting to turn heads:
-No 1 Unsigned Artist on PureVolume
-No 1 Most Downloaded song on PureVolume "Young and Reckless"
-A strong MySpace following of almost 13,000 fans
-No 1 on Myspace charts (Power-pop, DC)
-Consistently in the Top 5 on Myspace Rock Charts (MD & DC)

After naming them one of the 4 Top Unsigned bands at this years SXSW festival, Kings of A&R (one of the foremost industry trades) recently featured Hotspur again, this time in support of their new album:

"'Beta' comes across as a collection of hits as opposed to a typical album, each track a radio-ready dance rock single."

With the addition of new bass player Dave Cooper (formerly of Swingline), Hotspur is ready to take things to the next level, one show at a time.
