Hokum Hotshots

Hokum Hotshots

The Hokum Hotshots are a blues/roots duo from South Shields, Tyne and Wear, UK.

Consisting of Pete Mason (vocals, guitar, percussion) and Jim Murray (vocals, guitar), the duo, formed in 1969, are legends on the local folk scene and recorded two CDs in the late 1990s, Still in the Game and Guitar Swing.

The Hotshots recorded Maybe it's the Blues in 1985 which was released on vinyl.

The Hotshots, as well as playing their own arrangements, have reworked old delta blues standards by Lightnin' Hopkins and Big Bill Broonzy, among many others.

Both Murray and Mason have, in some form, performed in bands such as Pigmeat and The Shinola Boys.

Mason's younger brother and harmonica player Rob Mason often performs with the band and featured on Guitar Swing.
