Hicks' playing and singing shine throughout HARLEM, blending reverent familiar with vigorous fresh, the work of an artist deeply rooted in blues birthed decades before him but equally invested in finding his own way of playing it. Yes, every day he sings the blues, but in a manner only Hicks himself can.

“Hicks is undeniably a talent who has mastered the art form, and is a joy to listen to.” – Willie Witten, Blues Rock Review

“Each moment he’s up there onstage, Hicks seems to draw out every drop of joy he has when playing and pours it out to the audience who offer him heaps of cheers and thanks in return.”
– Monty Sewell, Rock ’n Load
