Nicki Bluhm is coming to Pioneertown (Noa Azoulay-Sclater/Contributed Image)
Bay Area outfit Nicki Bluhm & The Gramblers are headed to Pappy & Harriet’s Pioneertown Palace on Saturday, Jan. 26.
I kind of fell in love with them after a friend passed on their “Van Sessions” of Hall & Oates, where they film covers in their van while they’re on the road. It’s kind of amazing. Wait for the incredible kazoo solo.
You might recognize Tim Bluhm from The Mother Hips, who is part of the group, too. Their original music is fantastic, too.
Tickets are $10 and are available through Ticketweb.
Now, here is one more of my favorite “Van Sessions”–George Michael’s “Faith” (the handclaps are the best!):
And definitely check out the band’s work outside of the van. Here’s “Burnt.”
