New Years is a time for change, and as such, I Am The Heat will be changing. We’ve parted ways with our beloved bassist, Kevin, and now we’re looking for some new blood.
WHO WE ARE:
Sixties garage rock fury meets post-punk minimalism, with an explosive, almost chaotic live show. Think: early Who meets Stooges meets Strokes meets Les Savy Fav…at a pool party.
RESUME:
Two amazing videos:
Flash or Confess
Ghost Bear
More
A bunch of great recordings, some with all-star producer Eric “Roscoe” Ambel.
Song placement on the CBS TV show CSI.
Strong web presance:
Facebook
Twitter
Website
YouTube
MySpace
Blog
Good press.
Shows roughly once per month, mostly in NY and NJ, but looking to expand a little.
REQUIREMENTS:
Learn existing material quickly, write new material with us, practice twice per week, play shows, record, be awesome. Backing vocals a plus. Owning transportation also a plus, especially if your transportation is a fleet of helicopters. We’ve always wanted to arrive at a show in separate helicopters like Dethklok, or Thom Yorke.
Get in touch if you’re interested, and we’ll talk details and give you our full sales pitch!

Life is good. Really good. All of us in I AM THE HEAT are UNBELIEVABLY excited to announce the release of TWO NEW SONGS today! Recorded at Brooklyn’s own Cowboy Technical Studios and produced by the legendary Eric “Roscoe” Ambel (spoiler alert: he also played tambourine on one of the songs), we think this is our best work yet! We’re proud. Like, “mom taped this to the refrigerator” proud.
The songs are called “Life Comes At You Medium Fast” and “Golden Hearts”. Initially you can listen to the songs on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/pages/I-Am-The-Heat/31277958910) and MySpace (http://www.myspace.com/iamtheheat). In a week or two the tracks will be available for download on iTunes. Stay tuned for download dates and more amazing news in the days and weeks to come…

We had a “strategy meeting” this weekend. Seems so businessy. There’s a lot going on in I am the Heat land these days. Details to come!

The party starts promptly at 10pm, with a set by the beautiful and talented Hype of the States. We’re on second, and somewhere in between we’ll air the video. Expect mayhem, excitement and ridiculous times, along with limited edition Ghost Bear t-shirts and THREE new songs, which we’re very exited to debut.
There will be a pre-party for those of you who can’t wait until 10pm. It’ll be at a bar nearby around 9pm (details to come).
