SUMMARY:Rick Estrin & The Nightcats
LOCATION:SPACE
DESCRIPTION:Blues vocalist\, harmonica master and songwriting legend Rick 
 Estrin\, leader of the musically fearless\, wildly entertaining\, award-wi
 nning band Rick Estrin t like to talk much about his own musical superpowe
 rs. But ask him about the Nightcatsmulti-instrumentalist/musical mastermin
 d/producer Christoffer Kid Andersen\, keyboardist/organ wizard/bass player
  Lorenzo Farrell and endlessly creative drummer Derrick DMar Martinand hel
 l be happy to sing their praises. This band is killer. Im enjoying this al
 l more than ever\, says the man whos been performing and recording profess
 ionally since the early 1970s. Its a blessingtheres so much energy\, so mu
 ch collaboration. The band is just so good right now. And the live show is
  better than ever. Living Blues calls Rick Estrin a terrific blues band wi
 th a real character for a front man\, continuing\, Clever\, well-crafted s
 ongs framed by first-flight musicianshiphugely entertaining\, intelligentl
 y conceived and executed roots rock with a wickedly cool and otherworldly 
 twist on tradition. Estrins harp work is masterful.Rick Estrin new album a
 nd the bands sixth release\, The Hits Keep Coming\, packs a powerful punch
 \, with phenomenal musicianship and lyricsboth serious and humorous. Produ
 ced by Andersen at his legendary Greaseland USA studio in San Jose\, Calif
 ornia\, the record captures the bands chemistry and magic in what is certa
 inly among their strongest\, most urgent and most cohesive releases so far
 . The Hits Keep Coming is modern blues at its most potent\, intense and fu
 n in all the right places\, as Rick Estrin & The Nightcats deliver twelve 
 groove-heavy\, hard-hitting songs\, including ten written or co-written by
  Estrin and two surprising covers (one obscurity from Muddy Waters\, one f
 rom Leonard Cohen that Estrin would have liked to have written). From the 
 foot-stomping opener Somewhere Else\, to the harsh reality of the title tr
 ack (with backing vocals by The Sons Of The Soul Revivers)\, to the musica
 lly infectious\, lyrically harrowing song about addiction\, The Circus Is 
 Still In Town\, The Hits Keep Coming is a lyrical and musical tour-de-forc
 e.In addition to Estrins celebrated songwriting and peerless blues harmoni
 ca playing\, he and the band are among the most entertaining and colorful 
 showmen around. Estrins signature streetwise vocals and hipster-cool look\
 , Andersens eye-popping\, off-the-cuff guitar pyrotechnics\, Farrells migh
 ty organ\, piano and bass work and DMars dynamic\, acrobatic drumming make
  every one of their live performances a must-see event. People dont go out
  to see people who look like themselves\, says Estrin. They want to see so
 mething special. I was schooled in this business to be a showman\, and tha
 ts what you get when you come to see us perform. We know how to put on a s
 how. I feel sorry for anyone who has to follow us.\n\nBoletos: https://www
