Temple Rose & HotMotel hit the Bread & Roses with a set of gritty, South London born rock and swaggering alt songs.

Built by a trio with serious pedigree, Greg Horton (drums, ex-The Plague), Steve Slack (bass, ex-UK Subs), and Steve Halliwell (guitar, ex-Shriekback), the band started as a raw, high energy power trio from Brixton Hill studios.

Rose Head’s arrival flipped everything. With a huge, commanding voice and frontwoman presence, she pushed the songs into sharper, more anthemic territory.

Say hello to the RamTang Spritz. Sharp citrus, low sweetness, big summer energy.

Made with a South London-born citrus liqueur, it’s zesty, refreshing, and just the right side of unruly.

Come try it 🍋🌹
