Described as "Soulful," "Sexy," and "Riveting," Dwight Ritcher & Nicole Nelson have been charming music fans & critics for years with their youthful, beautiful spin on blues/soul music. Their original sound has a life of it's own- spanning many genres and owning each one. Their ingredients are powerful, but simple enough:
Rock- At their live shows, Dwight plays the hell out of a Flying V guitar while Nicole beats wildly on a tambourine- each moving to their rhythm in a way that almost makes you blush. Folk- a lyrical sensibility, songs that seem to be crafted not only to get you moving, but breathe with feeling and point. Blues- they both have the kind of voices that only come from an understanding of why this is the mother of all American music. A little spattering of gospel-style country, and classic soul & jazz round out their fresh sound, and there you have it.
For this fiery duo, simple categorization doesn't quite do the trick- you'll have to listen & decide for yourself.
