History

Hot Chelle Rae began in 2005, with a meeting between singer-songwriter Ryan (RK) and guitarist Nash. The band is named for the first "dedicated" fan, Chelle Rae, a MySpace stalker who provided the band with quite an entertaining era of online activity until her false identity was discovered and brought to light.[2] Overstreet is the son of country music singer Paul Overstreet and the brother of actor Chord Overstreet. The Follesés are the sons of country songwriter Keith Follesé and Keaggy is the son of Phil Keaggy.[3]

In the summer of 2007, the band opened a sold out concert for rapper Lil Jon. Later on that year, they played a string of venues at the prestigious South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas, and then went on tour with the band Vedera.

They were signed to Jive Records in October 2008, and then began work on their first album.

2008–2010: Lovesick Electric

After being signed with Jive Records in 2008, Hot Chelle Rae began work on their debut album with producers Eric Valentine, Butch Walker, and Matt Radosevich. The album, Lovesick Electric, was released on October 27, 2009.

2011–present: "Tonight Tonight" and second studio album

After releasing the single "Tonight Tonight", Hot Chelle Rae skyrocketed to mainstream success. "Tonight Tonight" peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 in July 2011. Their next single, "I Like It Like That", premiered on September 13, 2011 on KZHT, a radio station in Salt Lake City.[citation needed] The song features rap duo New Boyz. It is scheduled to be released on iTunes on October 4, 2011.
