Fun x 3 Pick: El Paso Hot Button
It’s getting to be about that time. Time for the 3rd, and highly anticipated, installment of Transmission Entertainment’s Fun Fun Fun Fest, based here in Austin. All this week, you can find out which bands we are excited about seeing this coming weekend, and why we think you might want to fit them into your festival plans.
Two things about El Paso Hot Button you should know up front. First off, El Paso Hot Button hails from Oklahoma, not El Paso. What’s up with that, I’m not sure, but I’ll be sure to ask if given the opportunity. Two, El Paso Hot Button is the one man band creation of a guy named Mickey Reece. Reece plays the guitar, sings, and bangs out the beats on his custom foot operated drum kit.
I haven’t seen many a one-man band in my time, and I’m not sure exactly how Reece stacks up to the others that are out there, but I will say that the 2 times I have seen him are enough for me to get to the park early enough for his set. Always entertaining is the El Paso Hot Button and the music is infectious. It’s got a good beat man!
