Artist's Biography

HOT ICE Song Writer, Band Leader, Producer, Singer and Dancer.
HOT ICE is no stranger to the New York City music scene. As a native New Yorker, he started his career playing with various bands throughout the five boroughs. During his youth, he acquired his thirst for music from his Panamanian parents who were singers in the group, Melodiers. While attending many of their rehearsals and concerts, he learned how to play several musical instruments as well as the importance of improving his musical skills.

Hot Ice’s talent for playing the bass guitar has led him to perform with internationally known artists as Ray Goodman & Brown, Crown Heights Affair, Hezekiah Walker and the Love Fellowship Choir. In 2001, as a bass guitar accompanist for the youth gospel choir, Voices of Harmony, Hot Ice’s playing contributed to the choir receiving the 1st prize at the McDonald’s Gospel Fest. As a freelance bass guitarist, he has played with a wide variety of independent bands in New Jersey and New York at such venues as Town Hill 2, The Ecstasy, President Chateau and Club Dee on 673 Flatbush Ave. Since 2013, he has given free summer concerts in New York neighborhood communities sponsored by Make Music New York.
Presently, Hot Ice is busy creating new music of many genres – Gospel, Jazz, R&B, Reggae, Rock, Salsa, Soca, Soul and Neo Soul. His love for unique music arrangements, coupled with articulate composing spent in his own industry standard recording studio and record label – HOT NEW ENTERTAINMENT, keeps him alive. He’s also CEO of GUITARZAN PRODUCTION. Look for his newly released music in all digital stores and streaming services.
