Nicki Bluhm and the Gramblers

A rootsy country, R&B, and blues-soaked band, San Francisco-based Nicki Bluhm & the Gramblers are centered around vocalist Bluhm and her husband, guitarist/keyboardist Tim Bluhm. Formed around 2006 while Nicki was putting together a live ensemble to promote her solo debut, 2008's Toby's Song, the Gramblers feature various Bay Area musicians, including Deren Ney on lead guitar/vocals, Steve Adams on bass/vocals, Dave Mulligan on rhythm guitar/vocals, and drummer Mike Curry. In 2012, Nicki Bluhm & the Gramblers released their self-titled full-length debut album, featuring the single "Little Too Late." ~ Matt Collar
