Bio
THE GREATEST HITS from Seattle , WA have spent the last 3 years touring, recording, and pioneering the underground. This five piece rock n roll act delivers a sound and look that contains elements of everyone from T Rex/David Bowie to the Ramones/Dead Boys to the Beach Boys/Beatles to The Sweet/Slade and have been compared to Hanoi Rocks, The Rolling Stones, and The New York Dolls.
The band’s 2005 demo was discovered by THE BRIEFS frontman Steve E Nix, who proceeded to record 3 songs with them. Extensive touring followed including a slot on New York City ’s Radio Heartbeat Festival and the upcoming Wild Weekend Power Pop Festival in Austin where they will be opening for UK punk legends THE BOYS! Other noteworthy bands the Greatest Hits have shared the stage with include the NEW YORK DOLLS, POINTED STICKS, FASTER PUSSYCAT, THE BRIEFS, THE CASUALTIES, HOLY GHOST REVIVAL, CHESTERFIELD KINGS, SUPERSUCKERS, BLACK HALOES, and many more!
The band recently went back in the studio to record 5 more songs with Steve E Nix and Johnny Sangster (known for recording The Supersuckers, The Briefs, etc). Three of those tracks will soon be released on split EPs with The Tough Shits and The Luxury Sweets and another session will soon take place to record the seven remaining tracks to complete the band’s full length.
In October/November, GH will be doing a 6 week long tour with Baltimore ’s Fishnet Stalkers.
