Perhaps best known for his work as the guitarist and singer-songwriter for T.Rex, Marc Bolan’s psychedelic folk sound would soon become one of the most innovative acts of the 1970s. The band’s signature style soon saw many of their songs become number one hits in the United Kingdom. Hot Love, Metal Guru, Telegram Sam and Get It On each achieved strong chart success, paving the way for the band’s 1971 album Electric Warrior. Having achieved significant critical acclaim, T. Rex soon went on to release their 1972 follow-up, The Slider.
The combined success of both albums further cemented Bolan’s reputation as one of the greatest performers of his time. In a tragic turn of events, Bolan’s musical career was cut short at the age of 29. Since then, audiences around the world have continued to appreciate Bolan’s unquestionable influence in the world of music. As a result, crowds have been eager to experience a musical performance worthy of the original act. Marc Bolan tribute act Hot Love has since stepped in to fill the void.

Putting their own spin on many classic Marc Bolan tracks, Hot Love have released several Bolan-influenced albums in their own right, including Eclectic Warrior, Down The Bolan Road and Pollution Machine.
The band’s success as one of the most authentic Marc Bolan tribute acts around has seen them enjoy success performing as corporate entertainment and wedding entertainment alike.
