You can read more about them here: http://www.last.fm/music/Don+Malena+&+The+Dry+Ice This band was together from 1965 to 1972. The members included Steen Brydum (lead singer), Carsten Brydum (bass), Mike Eger (lead guitar), Dave Maddux (rhythm guitar), and Randy Hayes (drums). The band played local clubs, concerts and other venues. The band appeared twice on network TV on “The Happening” show on ABC in 1969. That was also the year that the band recorded their fuzz guitar-laced anthem to summer, the now resurgent song “Land of Summertime”. The band had a friend named Don Malena who was a local singer/songwriter. He asked Dry Ice to record a couple of songs with him (including Land of Summertime). Don wrote the song and sang lead on the track, but the band created the arrangement and played all of the instruments. Steen and Dave provided the harmony vocals. Mike played the monster fuzz guitar riffs. The song was released as a 45 credited to "Don Malena and the Dry Ice". (The band’s name was “Dry Ice” not “The Dry Ice”. The word “the” was mistakenly added by the Mal-Don label when the 45 was pressed.) Dry Ice recorded some additional songs in the studio without Don Malena, but they were never released. In 1998, “Land of Summertime” was included in the compilation CD “A Fistful of Fuzz” published by the New York label Digital Music Transcendence (DMT). In 2013, the CD was re-mastered and re-released on the UK music label Particles. 3. A 26 year old rapper from Rockford, Illinois Source: http://www.reverbnation.com/dryiceisthetruth
