About Hot Chip
Hot Chip grew out of a friendship between Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard, who met at school in south-west London and began recording together around 2000. The line-up settled as a five-piece with Owen Clarke, Al Doyle and Felix Martin. After the debut Coming on Strong, The Warning (2006) broke them wider and was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize.
Albums including Made in the Dark, One Life Stand, In Our Heads and A Bath Full of Ecstasy mix house, synth-pop and soul balladry, with Taylor's high, gentle voice set against Goddard's lower one. Members keep busy outside the band: Goddard records solo and as half of The 2 Bears, and Doyle also plays in LCD Soundsystem.
