Hot Water Music is a Gainesville, Florida punk outfit known for Chuck Ragan and Chris Wollard's raspy vocals, as well as their searing Jawbreaker-esque guitars on earlier albums. The act first formed in 1993, and their first record, Finding the Rhythms, was released on No Idea and Toy Box records.
But when the band went on an indefinite hiatus in 2005 they left a void that many groups such as Alkaline Trio Against Me! and the Gaslight Anthem attempted to fill.
Mark Olson of The Jayhawks said that and while Hot Water Music (HWM) couldn’t be further in sound from Olson’s most famous group I can’t think of a band that better embodies the sentiment.
