Our Our monthly was launched in New York in 1981 to provide music enthusiasts with a handy printed guide to the best in New York, concerts and festivals - with informed commentary on up-and-comers as well as established talent. That very first issue of Hot House was the result.

Today, well into our third decade, Hot House is going strong. Thanks to a loyal readership, including many people living far from the city and even outside the U.S. plus the enthusiastic support of club owners, concert promoters and record companies eager to build the audience for this music, we're set to broaden our scope and extend our reach still further.

Expanding our operations, and determined to help promote talented musicians outside the New York scene, we have launched Hot House Florida. With the assistance of enthusiastic writers tuned in to the Florida music world, plus a local production manager, Hot House New York President Gwen Calvier delivered the magazine to clubs, theaters, universities and music and instrument stores throughout southeast Florida the first of each month at the latest.

After the first year of operations Charlie Boyer came in to be the publisher of Hot House Florida, with Gwen’s continued help and assistance. It’s the area’s only free monthly publication devoted solely to top artists in the Jazz, Latin and Blues fields – and keyed to their upcoming local appearances.

We are confident that you will enjoy your Jazz, Latin and Blues monthly “rendez-vous”, also online at www.hothouseflorida.com for daily updated schedules with direct link to venues’ and clubs' website and direct connection to artists' website.
