HOTSTOP
Hotstop is a high energy rock band based out of Northeast Los Angeles. With influences ranging from Led Zeppelin to Michael Jackson, Hotstop has been creating a unique blend of rock and pop since the band formed in January 2013. Hotstop has 4 members – Bryn William (originally from Ohio), Drü Marshall (originally from Florida), and the Wlodyka brothers: Waldemar and Derek Max.
The brothers were born and raised in the heart of Los Angeles. Derek, the younger of the two, has a street performer background. Waldemar has been classically trained.
Bryn & Drü moved to Los Angeles in the Summer of 2012, meeting through serendipitous circumstances that included chow mein and the Star of David. Once Bryn & Drü got the ball rolling, they met Waldemar who saw their ad seeking a guitarist on Craigslist but did not respond. When roaming Melrose Avenue in search of a Members Only jacket, he noticed a flyer featuring a striking face; it was that of his future drummer and soulmate, Drü Marshall.
Hotstop’s music is loud, fun, and is sure to give listeners of all ages aural pleasure.
