The rock and roll pups of Hot Chelle Rae and chugging all over the U. S. these days, touring up a storm. Just in time to get splattered with green beer, they're playing a gig tonight in NYC at Highline Ballroom.

But before they get too stained with dirty booze or jaded from a life of touring, mean women and rock-and-roll, we thought we'd talk to these delightful young lads. So above is what happened when we quizzed Nash, R.K., Ian and Jamie about becoming a band, their weird name, gay fans and rock gods. And watch their rip-roaring video for "I Like to Dance" below!

Enjoy! And keep your eyes on these guys. They're gonna get big.

After the jump, HCR's new video for their tune "Bleed." Ouch!

Here's the brand new video for HCR's new single, "Bleed." This is the clip with fan footage included!!! Nice.

Want more of these guys? HotChelleRae.com is a freakin' bonanza of all things HCR, not surprisingly. Cheers!
