Hello-- I'm Ms Nickki from Memphis,TN. aka the "Bluff City", but more worldwide known as the Heart of Popular American Music, and especially Black American Music... Blues, Soul Music (Stax Rec. / Royal Studios (W.Mitchell), Rhythm & Blues, Gospel, Funk, Country, Rock'n'Roll... Music is in every downtown, up-town, mid-town's wall! I'm singing @ the internationally known and locally beloved " WILD BILL's ", the last tiny Juke Joint North Memphis on Vollintine Ave. I'm there every fri & sat night w/ the Memphis Soul Survivors (Houseband) warmin' the place w/ others singers & friends from here (Wesley "White Lightnin'" Taylor) and overseas like ManU (www.myspace.com/mississippisaxmanu), the French Harmonica Player. I'd like so much to perform overseas and bring my soulful repertoire > Europe (1st, France where i got some friends and musicians). So… festival directors, booking agents, managers, you're very welcome if you are serious!!

If you've never been to Wild Bill's in Memphis to see and hear Ms. Nickki, run, don't walk! She is the "real thing" and can belt out a song with the best of them. She's also really sweet!

ReplyDeleteShe was on at Bill Codays party at the Hard Luck Cafe when we were over in 2003. Saw her again a coupla years ago at Will Bills.
She really is good - her CD bought at the time was a bit mixed - due to the backing really but with the right crew behind her I think she'd be fantastic.
