Reggie is an asset to any band. Cool as a cucumber. You might wonder what he's up to because he's smiling from the beginning to the end of the show.

When he is not playing with Hot Like Fire you will find him touring with St. Croix's "Bambu Station".
Sean Acker -guitar
Look up "mad skankin' reggae guitarist" in the dictionary and you will see a picture of Sean. This dude has a total knowledge of reggae guitar comparable to any Jamaican. You may remember him from his years performing with Boston's Dub Station. He is also a very talented producer.
John "Redd" Lima
Redd has been a Hot Like Fire icon for many years now with the signature way he rocks his head to the music. John "Redd" Lima was born in Boston. His mom is Puerto Rican and his dad is from Cape Verde, so don't mistake him for a "white boy"! As a kid, Redd always hung out while his dad played keyboards in a Cape Verdean band and eventually followed in his father's footsteps. He paid his dues with "Motion", one of Boston's most respected reggae bands back in the day and backed up artists like Anthony B, Baby Cham and LadySaw.
