Ice Angel was formed in late 1989 a
Ice Angel has a diverse range of influences, from Deep Purple, to Stevie Nicks, Rush, ELP, King Crimson and many other artists. The combined mixture of each member's influences gave way to Ice Angel having a unique sound. Bassist Russ Tyler and Drummer Nunzio were introduced to Howard Nema through the great Craig Keller (alias Rubin Kinkade) they were the final two components to complete Ice Angel. The pair had played together for years, obtaining a mysterious quality to know what each other was about to play before even hearing a note. This complimented the already overwhelming talents of Howard Nema on Lead Guitar, Maria Corbo on Vocals and Keith Ratner playing Keyboards and Piano.
Playing in very exclusive theaters and clubs Ice Angel soon had a tremendous following throughout the New York area. With interest from Warner Brothers they decided to go into the studio and record some of their songs. It was an extremely hard choice to pick what three songs to record. The only song that was a "no Brainer" was Johnny, this was one of Ice angels biggest hits, based on true events from a past friendship with Maria Corbo , Johnny struck the hearts of many fans.
Ice Angel went into the studio to record a three song demo. As luck may have it, they recorded the songs quicker than expected and had room for one more. A song that was still in the creative stage was decided to be the fourth track. It had freshly been written and had not yet been finalized or rehearsed. The song was Cheating Heart. On one take the band started, recorded and finished the song.
Ice Angel has reunited and has spent the last few months recording a 14 song album which should be available before the new year. We have added "Standing Tall" to the play list and have enabled to be downloaded for FREE!
