Rhythm Rockets July 3, 2009

The best thing to come out of Chicago since organized crime.The Rhythm Rockets are known for their three piece saxophone section that delivers a fat, playful personality of sound. A rhythm section that provides a solid and continuous pulse -- all building the foundation for the sultry, smokey vocals of Nicole Kestler. Heavily influenced by the sax-driven Jump, Rhythm & Blues bands of the late 1940's and the early 1950's, the Rhythm Rockets bring to the stage the high-energy roots music that influenced the founding fathers of Rock 'n' Roll.
