Ricky Nye Editorial Review
The Skinny
Since the start of his music career in 1979, Nye has played with bands like the Raisins and Big Ed Thompson and the All Stars before fronting groups like the Red Hots and the Swingin' Mudbugs. He also performs in drag as alter ego, Miss Vicki D'Salle, at local events like Covington's Mardi Gras, and at clubs like the Crazy Fox (corner of 9th and Washington in Newport).
With a remarkable album, "Piano is Fun," already in its second pressing, and plans to record and release new solo albums with his two respective backing bands this year, one might wonder what exactly Nye has to sing the blues about.
The Crowd
Fans of raucous New Orleans-style blues and Zydeco, foot-stompin' party music.
