“Think Tina Turner fronting AC/DC and you’ll have half of the picture. She’s a machine you’ve got no excuse if you miss seeing her Nikki Hill is a revelation, her band masters of rocket-fueled bluesy swing, her voice the beacon which calls you home…a vocal powerhouse,” raves ROLLING STONE.
Blues Music Award Nominated Singer, Songwriter & Bandleader NIKKI HILL has always created a path outside of the norm. Hill found her inspiration in pulling the different parts of her musical worlds together, taking the tones of the R&B, soul, and gospel that raised her at home, and blending it with the expressions of blues, garage, rock n roll, and roots that she soaked up on her own. Blending soulful, sensual & bold vocal tones with powerful chrome-plated riffs & swagger, her voice finds a home in it --- a soul singing, bar rocking, roots revivalist, that writes with frank self-reflection! Hills band is: MATT HILL (Guitar), LAURA CHAVEZ (Guitar), NICK GAITAN (Bass) & MARTY DODSON (Drums). CHAVEZ has been Nominated for "Guitar Player of the Year" for 5 years in a row at the Blues Music Awards (2019-2023). "If Tina Turner and Little Richard had a daughter and raised her with the help of uncles James Brown and Chuck Berry, she'd be like Nikki Hill." (Minneapolis Star Tribune)
