- Drummer of Kaiser Chiefs.
- He's only had a few drum lessons, mostly he taught himself.
- Is Kaiser Chiefs' principal songwriter.
- Sings lead vocals on "Boxing Champ", on the band's sophomore album "Yours Truly, Angry Mob".
- If I tweet that I'm making solo material then I have to do it. Right?!
- [on his decision to split from Kaiser Chiefs] It was obvious really, because they know I love the studio and I love writing and I'm not mad about touring. I loved touring at some point, but I didn't love it all the time and I didn't love it as much as everyone else.
- I'm the camp one [in Kaiser Chiefs], not like Mr Humphries though, just clean.
- When we were younger we wanted to make bouncy tunes you could just go a bit mental to and jump around the room listening to, but life moves on and things change.
- [2005] If you're the singer, everybody thinks you write the songs and if you're the drummer you get branded an idiot. So you have to work harder to push yourself and let people know you're not. [Hodgson writes most of the melodies and chords and an initial burst of lyrics.] I don't think I've ever written a second verse because my attention drifts to other things.
