The band is set to release a brand-new 4 song EP this fall.

Mackenzie Roark and the Hotpants is an Americana rock band from Richmond, Virginia, blending the soulful roots of classic country, the storytelling spirit of 70’s folk, and the raw edge of rock and roll. At the heart of the ensemble is singer-songwriter Mackenzie Roark, whose introspective yet witty lyrics and commanding presence lead audiences on a journey through the highs and lows of life’s most poignant moments. Known for their powerhouse performances, the Hotpants round out Roark’s dynamic songwriting with the fiery tones of fiddle, electric guitar riffs, funky basslines, and tight harmonies. With each show, Mackenzie Roark and the Hotpants invite audiences to listen and reflect, while still movin’ and groovin’ along to their electrifying songs.

"Caroline Vain, has frequented Richmond stages in recent years, providing expert accompaniment for the likes of Mackenzie Roark and the Hotpants, Deau Eyes and Villages. In February, she shared her first EP under her own name—four songs filled with great poise and detail, precisely in keeping with her performance style." -Davy Jones
