Think Tina Turner fronting AC/DC and youll have half of the picture. Shes a machineyouve 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 who dont mess around. Rolling Stone Nikki Hill is sweet seduction, sweeter threat, and smoldering energy. An original force in American music, she is tender and tough, flamboyant, witty and dangerous. To put it plainly, Hill brings daggers back to the stage and studio. Overlapping soulful, sensual and bold vocal tones with powerful chrome-plated riffs and swagger, her voice finds a home in it a soul singing, bar rocking, roots revivalist, that writes with frank self-reflection at a dancing tempo.Hailing from Durham, North Carolina, Nikki Hill enjoyed R roll, blues and roots, while also picking up influence from living along the legendary Mississippi River in St. Louis, Missouri, New Orleans, Louisiana, and currently Memphis, Tennessee. In Nikkis mind, a fertile mix of all the different types of music she had heard arose, and gradually these merged into something quite special, as she found her own voice, which the world was gradually introduced to on her many constant tours, where she took more and more audiences by storm with her distinctive vocals and energetic stage performance.
