Nikki D & The Sisters of Thunder is a family based group from Toledo, Ohio.
Their unique style is Gospel with Blues riffs and grooves, all punctuated by Nikki D's wildly soulful and electrifying steel guitar.
In fact, in 2016, Guitar World magazine described Nikki as "The Jimi Hendrix of Sacred Steel" because of her experimental vocal-like riffs and other-worldly sounds. She's also a soulful vocalist that commands the attention with her raspy, sultry voice.
The group is known for their powerfully moving, revival-like performances with beautifully atmospheric vocals riding
about a wave of infectious rhythms and grooves.
They've shared the stage with The Rance Allen Group, The Slide Brothers, The Raconteurs, and many others.
Their excitement and energy is contagious. When they hit the stage, a forecast for hand clapping and toe tapping will be expected.
Even though 2020 has delivered a blow to bands, venues, and live music in general, Apostle Jones has nevertheless been on an impressive upward trajectory. The release of their first EP – “Lilith” has staked out their space in this city’s musical landscape. Led by the dramatic, stirring vocals and presence of singer/keyboardist Mikey Silas, the group delves into the soulful music singing about life’s experiences and good times to come. Here’s what some of the fans and critics have to say:
“One the best bands I have had the honor of listening to live I highly recommend giving them a listen to because they are fantastic.” – Dale Calvin Crouch
