Bands are for seasons and some will go on for many years–most bands will not. While the seasons for the Nickel Blues Band were relatively short, they provided a strong foundation for the members to evolve and express their talent in others ways. Here is an update on the members:

Black-banezi-logoJordan Lenz – Today, Jordan is pursuing EDM (Electronic Dance Music) as a writer and producer called Banezi and you can sample some of his recordings here: https://soundcloud.com/banezi

 

Dakota-Hurley-logoDakota Hurley has a new self-titled country act gaining momentum. You can follow him and his band here: http://www.dakotahurley.com/

Jammers and music lovers COME ON DOWN…it’s another Hog Wild Wednesday at the Loaded Hog in downtown Orlando. Great, free and easy parking for early birds on the street.
