The One Man Entertainment System, otherwise known as Heatbox, has been emerging in the Minneapolis music scene (“the 612”) for the better part of a decade.  From rocking crowds in his humble beginnings with the Root City Band to selling out shows across the country, Heatbox’s unparalleled crossover between Motown, A cappalla, R&B, Hip Hop, Soul and Funk has gained National attention from both fans and the media alike.  

Creating beats and building songs from the ground up, Heatbox uses a Boss LoopStation RC-50 and a voice modulator (sparingly) to create his songs.  Recording each part as he goes, Heatbox’s music is live and in the moment.  Using no tracks, samples, or pre-recorded music, each song and performance is distinctly unique.  

Heatbox’s discography includes two full-length studio albums, Entertainment (2006) and System (2009).  Included on System is a video game, Ninja Strike, designed and programmed entirely by Heatbox. Following the System release in 2009, he co-produced two original music videos, "Pizza Funk" and "Jack & Coke” alongside acclaimed Boston video producer Spookie Daly.
