The band has had highly enthusiastic receptions where and whenever they have played. Wonderful songs such as “My Girl” and “My Guy”, “Heatwave,” and “Heard it Through the Grapevine” are timeless. The group features dynamic vocals by Angela and Becky and cool arrangements, including their new Carribean sound. They have an amazingly solid rhythm section anchored by Jacobson and Vadnais. Becky, Dave, and Allan all take creative solos. Nickel Jukebox is available for club dates or private functions and is surprisingly affordable.
