Got the word from Alligator this morning!!! “The Hits Keep Coming” has debuted on the Billboard Blues Chart AT NUMBER 1

Rick Estrin and the Nightcats will be in town on June 23rd at NCRD for a very special show. Members of the Neahkahnie High School choir will open the show with a brief set at 3pm.

Award-winning, modern blues legends, Rick Estrin & The Nightcats – two-time winners of the prestigious Blues Music Award for Band Of The Year – currently celebrating the release of their long-awaited new Alligator Records album, The Hits Keep Coming, will perform as part of the Benefit for the new Nehalem Bay Health Center at the NCRD Performing Arts Center in Nehalem on Sunday, June 23, 2024. The Hits Keep Coming, the band’s first release in almost five years and sixth overall, packs a powerful punch, with phenomenal musicianship and streetwise lyrics—both serious and humorous. Vocalist, harmonica master and songwriter Estrin, along with multi-instrumentalist/musical mastermind/producer Christoffer “Kid” Andersen, keyboardist/organ wizard/bass player Lorenzo Farrell and endlessly creative drummer Derrick “D’Mar” Martin, have created what Estrin calls, “the best music we’ve ever made together. This band is killer. I’m enjoying this all more than ever,” says the man who’s been performing and recording professionally since the early 1970s. “It’s a blessing—there’s so much energy, so much collaboration. The band is just so good right now. And the live show is off the charts.”

Some tickets are still available at Ticket Tomato.

A beer and wine social will begin at 2pm.

Do not miss this opportunity to see a band of this caliber and not have to travel to Portland and support local healthcare at the same time.
