Groupe
Country US formé en 2015 par Dierks
Bentley.
Hot
Country Knights is an American country music and parody music band formed by
country music singer Dierks Bentley
in 2015. The band is composed of alter egos of
Bentley and his own road band.
Bentley portrays lead singer
Douglas "Doug" Douglason, with the other members being Trevor Travis (bass
guitar), Marty Ray "Rayro" Roburn (lead guitar), Terotej "Terry" Dvoraczekynski
(fiddle), Barry Van Ricky (steel guitar), and Monte Montgomery (percussion). The
members of Bentley's road band have also fashioned fictitous backstories for
their musical alter egos. In 2020, Capitol Records Nashville, the label to which
Bentley is signed, also signed Hot
Country Knights. The band is intended to be a satirical tribute to country music
of the 1990s. Variety described the band as "a full Spinal Tap-like
musical-comedy act around the mullet-laden, '90s-spoofing conceit."
The band released its debut single, "Pick Her Up", a duet with
Travis Tritt, in January 2020. It was accompanied by a music video starring Tiffani Thiessen. Hot
Country Knights performed "Asphalt" on Jimmy Kimmel Live on February 5, 2020.
In February 2020, Bentley announced in-character as Douglason that Hot Country
Knights would begin touring starting in April 2020. The band also released a
second music video for "Asphalt" at this point. Capitol Records announced that
the group's debut album, The K Is Silent, will be released on May 1, 2020.
Bentley co-wrote five songs on the album, with other collaborators including
Brett Beavers, Jim Beavers, and Jon Nite.
Terri Clark sings duet vocals on the
track "You Make It Hard".
