They toured both albums extensively, playing hundreds of shows across the UK & Europe, Scandinavia, the US and even India. They are proud to have played alongside the likes of Joan of Arc, Battles, Jamie T and The Who. They're besotted with mid-era Don Cabellero, old Billy Bragg and any period of their hero Mike Watt's back catalogue.
In the first half of 2010 Hot Club de Paris released two 6-song EPs, called "With Days Like This As Cheap As Chewing Gum, Why Would Anyone Want To Work?". Their second EP called "The Rise And Inevitable Fall Of The High School Suicide Cluster Band" was released on the 24th May.
