​NRBQ & the Whole Wheat Horns



THE Q ARE BACK!

“If anything embodies the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll, this music does.”
Terry Adams, visionary, driving force and "untamed genius of the keyboards" for NRBQ since the band's inception over four decades ago, is one of music’s true originals. Adams reignited the legendary Quartet with the addition of Scott Ligon on guitar & vocals, Bobby Lloyd Hicks (Dave Alvin, Jonathan Richman, Steve Forbert, The Skeletons) on drums and Casey McDonough on bass & vocals.AND, for this show NRBQ will be joined by the Whole Wheat Horns:Klem Klimek on tenor saxophone and Carl Q on trombone. 

"If you were to take every NRBQ album ever released and grade it for sheer joy and listenability, well, you probably should spend less time grading and more time listening." - Rolling Stone
“Ability to groove like no other band on the planet,” - popmatters.com
“Fans will find spontaneity, humor, breadth, and musical know-how…” - No Depression
“Music no one can make anymore.” - the Detroit Metro-Times

And live? “…the current incarnation lives up to the legacy. They reclaim not only the vast NRBQ catalog of songs and loose-as-a-goose sound, but also the band’s wildly unpredictable spirit on stage. Their willingness to step way out on a limb has always been one of NRBQ’s most endearing qualities, and in the contemporary world of pre-packaged, cookie-cutter pop stars, it’s sure great to have them back,” said the Albany Times-Union. Added the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, "Meet the new Q, as fun as the old Q. NRBQ is still liable to play anything. Roaring rockabilly, transcendent pop-rock, roadhouse blues, avant jazz – you name it, Adams claims it and reframes it. The new band is a revelation, capable of playing nearly the whole NRBQ catalog, which dates back to 1966.”
