THE RITCHIE FAMILY RETURNS TO
BILLBOARD'S DANCE CLUB CHART AFTER
40 YEARS!
In 2016, the trio released the single "ICE", a rousing, heart-stopping musical journey that shows their still commanding vocal
presence in a most unique, decidedly hip and deliciously unexpected way. Produced by legendary vocalist Martha Wash's
boutique label Purple Rose Records (the powerful team that recently brought the group First Ladies of Disco to the Top 10 of
Billboard's dance chart with "Show Some Love"), "ICE" by The Ritchie Family immediately caught the ear of high-profile DJs
worldwide.
As a result, "ICE" vaulted onto the Billboard Dance Club Chart at #40, returning The Ritchie Family to the elite circle of the
current dance music hitmakers. The song has been gaining even more fans thanks to high-energy remixes by Chris Cox and
Moto Blanco. The Ritchie Family is proving that "ICE" is, indeed, very cool! The Ritchie Family are profiled and interviewed in
the best-selling book First Ladies of Disco by James Arena, which reached #1 on Amazon in the dance music category.
