Hosea "HeartBeat" Williams arrived
on this planet November 27, 1972. Born and raised in Washington
DC. As a youngster Heartbeat was influenced by his father
Hosea Sr. who was a gospel lead vocalist. Being around musicians
the majority of his childhood and family members who also
were musically inclined, Heartbeat started singing at the
very young age of 2 years old.
People started to notice his talent which
lead him to debut on a local gospel radio station WUST at
the age of five. Heartbeat, his brother Rick and his cousin
Tink were put together and formed a group called "The
Little Temptations" and they went on to win a host
of talent shows up and down the east coast.
As the years went on, Heartbeat took an
interest in the percussion. Realizing his talent, his parents
bought him a pair of bongos for Christmas and from that
moment, The Heartbeat legend was born.
Heartbeat was recruited by ECU, Class Band,
Double Agent Rock, Hot Cold Sweat and Acre Raid. Heartbeat
chose the Airier Raid Band becoming a significant part in
taking the band to another level of performance along with
local stars Teddy, Wop from the group "Wop and Em"
and keyboardist Marcus Johnson from "The Marcus Johnson
Project".
Heartbeat was then recruited by the legendary
Godfather of Go Go, Chuck Brown and the Soul Searchers.
In 1992 Heartbeat left Chuck Brown and took his percussion
and vocal skills to platinum recording artist "Rico
Suave".
This Individual "HEARTBEAT" is
truly in a class of his own. From writing, producing, lyrical
content, vocal, teaching, artist development, creativity,
running a blues, gospel and go go band, his own studio and
presently performing with one of the biggest rock, hip hop
acts in Europe, Dog Eat Dog. The list goes on and the sky
is truly the limit for this talented young man, so be on
the look out for the Heartbeat experience!
