Doors @ 7pmShow @ 8pmFull BarFree On-site ParkingAll Ages “That girl gets down to the nitty gritty.” Koko Taylor Danielle Nicole, singer, bassist and songwriter hailing from Kansas City, Missouri, has spent her life making music and pleasing fans, domestically and abroad. Nicole was initially influenced by her parents playing in bands and working around the KC music scene. She recalls seeing her father playing blues guitar and her mother singing with the group Little Eva and The Works and it set off a switch. With her two brothers, Nick and Kris, they formed the “Heavy Blues” band Trampled Under Foot, which found initial popularity in the Midwest, then exploded worldwide for over 10 years. There has been no shortage of praise; Guitar World stated, "Danielle Nicole has won respect and admiration throughout the American blues scene for her soulful, inventive playing and tireless work ethic." Blues Music Magazine effused, "Nicole brings it, bakes it, and serves it up blazing on a silver soul-rocking platter." The Kansas City Star declared, "Blues and soul vocalists tend to improve as they age. Bettye LaVette is among the artists who became increasingly believable as she matured. Danielle Nicole appears to be following in her footsteps." Danielle embarked on her solo career with Wolf Den (2015), which peaked at #2 on the Billboard Blues charts and amassed 7.5 million Spotify streams. Cry No More (2018) followed, the record was nominated for a Grammy in the contemporary blues category and debuted at number one in the Billboard Blues Charts – it also boasts over Spotify streams in excess of 10 million. The Love You Bleed(2024) has amassed over 1.2 MILLION streams in the less than a year since its release on Forty Below Records. After receiving 8 Blues Music Awards over her career for Bass Player and Female Contemporary Artist of the Year Nicole is just getting warmed up. —Since packing up his car in Montreal and driving down to Austin, Texas in 2023, Nico Little and his crew of rotating musicians (The North Americans) have sparked quite a fire in the rock and blues scene of the south. In just two short years, Nico has PLayed or headlined some of Texas’ most iconic venues, including Antone’s Nightclub, the Continental Club, Corpus Cristi Amphitheater, the Austin Long Center, and many more. The band pulls its sound from a combination of well-known Blues and Rock artists. Some of their biggest influences include Stevie Ray Vaughn, Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Jimi Hendrix, Gary Clark Jr, Muddy Waters, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Grateful Dead, John Mayer, John Lee Hooker, ZZ Top, Lonnie Mack and many more… In 2025, Nico added international guitar phenom Rhys John Stygal to the line up. The combination of both young guitar players, mixed with Nico’s exciting songwriting has created a new lane for the band, while remaining consistent with traditional rock and blues ground work layed before them. This medley of sounds helps satisfy both the old and the new listener alike. Rhys' undeniable internet success (surpassing 20 million views already), has brought new eyes on the group. This momentum has helped fueled the boys as they set to to continue releasing guitar driven, rock songs. With the new addition of Mr. Stygal, the band have now played alongside the likes of music legends such as Buddy Guy, Gary Clark Jr., Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, to name a few.
