Band Members: Sam Edmundson Abe Cox Ian Chisholm Tim Sweeting “As for an authentic villain, the real thing, the absolute, the artist, one rarely meets him even once in a lifetime…” ~Sidonie Gabrielle Colette Catalyzed by a cocktail of American powerhouse alternative, Trans-Atlantic hard rock and deep, dirty groove, Black Hat Villain has done the impossible and captured lightning in a bottle. Summoning the authenticity and unapologetic honesty of vintage rock & roll, the five fingers of BHV curl into a fist that packs one unforgettable punch: The freight train ferocity of Tim Sweeting on drums and Ian Chisholm on bass, the double-barrel guitar onslaught of Abe Cox and Sam Edmundson, the snarling, soaring vocals of the cane-wielding Scotty Tuesday… this is the anatomy of a hard rock colossus. Itʼs the trademark conviction and raw intensity of the Villainʼs live show that has put them on the map -- a dangerous alchemy of dirty, driving soul and melodic mayhem in a world starved for uncompromising, unadulterated rock & roll. The Black Hat Nation is rising. And the fists of the madding crowd are their flag. This is viral. This is visceral. This is as real as it gets. This is Black Hat Villain! <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Black+Hat+Villain">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
