“DeMink has earned international acclaim for his dynamic showmanship and mastery of blues, soul and rock……….. a whirling dirvish who jumps on everything but the stage” David Moye – Wireless Flash
"More energy than a chinchilla on speed." Barney Roach - Blue Ink
"You've got to see Hot Rod live to believe him, but even that doesn't stop some people from thinking their eyes are playing tricks on them.....Hot Rod is an original." Michael Kinsman - San Diego Blues Fest
A classic example for best music entertainment ..... His relaxed and easy going way, how he is handling his instrument, dancing, rocking, spontaneously changing between the most simple Country-Riffs and complicated Jazz-chords and sometimes diving right into the audience with a death jump-it's brilliant.
Southwest Press - (Germany)
They are truly a phenomenal band and one of our favorites....
