Robert Smith

Bass Guitar

Robert Smith cements the band with hip swaying bass.  hailing from San Diego, Robert has played with many of the best bands in Southern California.  His steady groove and raw funk is the perfect fit for HOTBOX.  Robert is the resident tech guru as he is steadily changing his gear in search of the perfect tone.  The "voodoo zen master" of the band brings a steady calming demenor, yet when he's unleashed for a spine popping bass solo, something more is unleashed.
