This is the debut recording for the No Refund Band (NRB), but don’t confuse that with inexperience. Collectively, the band members have toured and recorded full time for multiple decades. NRB found its sound two years ago when Ricky Jackson, (Lead Singer/Lead Guitarist) and Rik Robertson (Bass) joined forces with band founder Mike Crownover (Rhythm/Lead Guitar) to form the core of the band. In addition NRB features Anthony Terry on saxophone, Jim Brady on trumpet, and Walter Cross on drums. Jackson’s soulful voice and penetrating guitar licks lead the way with an air tight rhythm and horn section that deliver a very big soulful, rockin’ sound. NRB has evolved into a solid team of songwriters, band mates & friends that seem to personify the stuff successful bands are made of. While staying close to the bluesier side of things, the band has its own definitive style regardless of the genre, from covering Eleanor Rigby to the acoustic originals Come Down Slow and Fall Again, to more classic blues styles like Just To Be Blue, Blues Is My Business and Give Me One More Drink Before I Drown. Making a guest on the CD is the totally awesome Tommie Lee Bradley, bringing her sassy & soulful vocals that will leave you wanting more.
