LITTLE
TOO LATE AND RAVENOUS AVAILABLE – LISTEN NOW January
15, 2013
“Little
Too Late” and digital B-side “Ravenous” are
now available for download through our
website, iTunes, Amazon,
and Google
Play. Both tracks were recorded at the Bluhms’ SF
studio, Mission Bells. Already a live favorite, "Little
Too Late" is an energetic loper whose lyrics feature
words of advice from a pigeon-toed drifter who briefly
uses the Gramblers' home as a refuge from the police. "Ravenous" is
a simple, repeating piano figure that becomes layered with
electric guitars and pumping rhythm section. The narrator
seeks revenge on her lover's murderer. It was written as
part of a concept album. The notebook containing the album's
ideas and lyrics was lost and this was the only song that
was copied elsewhere.

of the Rolling Stones and My Morning Jacket. We also performed
a Van Session live at the end of each show that you, the
fans, voted on. Check out the videos below for our
staircase jam:
Lionel

UPCOMING SHOWS | NEW VAN SESSION
June 2 , 2012
May
was a wonderful month for The Gramblers, which we kicked
off at the annual Hipnic in Big Sur. We then had the
honor of playing some beautiful theaters and venues in
California and the Pacific NW with The Bodeans. We would
like to extend a big thank you to them and to all their
fans for being so kind and accepting of us! June is gearing
up to be another busy month. We even found time to drop
a new ‘Van
Session’ of Pat
Benatar’s ‘Hit Me With Your Best Shot.’ With
our first San Francisco Residency ever at the Rickshaw
Stop starting next Tuesday, June 5th, we are excited
to play some new songs and invite our extended musical
family to the stage. We will be all over in California
during June, including Deren and my hometown of Lafayette,
so check out our
schedule for a town near you! .
Love,
Nicki Bluhm and The Gramblers

BROKEDOWN
IN BAKERSFIELD April

Tim
and I are super excited to hit the road with Brokedown
in Bakersfield featuring Scott Law and
members of ALO: Lebo, Steve Adams and Dave Brogan. Come out for some
Bakersfield sound near you and Like
us on Facebook!
Drawing from the powerful songbooks of Merle Haggard,
Buck Owens, Gram Parsons and more, Brokedown in Bakersfield showcases the striking
songwriting and instrumentation of guitar-slinging country sounds that added
oil to the Dust Bowl life of '60s-era Southern California - on the road, in the
truck, out the back, and at the honky tonk. See Tour Dates |

TIM & NICKI BLUHM: 'DUETS' November
15,
2011
Tim and Nicki Bluhm have recorded an 8-song limited CD
EP called Duets. The
duo blends the honky tonk harmonies of California country
with West Coast folk and acoustic Americana, interlaced
with vocal nuances and an emotional intimacy that inspire
pin-drop attention. Duets features
six original songs co-written by the Bluhms, plus two covers: “Running
Wild” by Ray Edenton and Donny Winters; and “Reno,
Nevada” by Richard Fariña. The
couple recorded the songs at their San Francisco studio,
Mission Bells, with producer Dan Prothero (Tim’s
solo album California Way, Galactic, JJ Grey & Mofro).
“Duets sounds like a smile,” says Nicki. “Duets is
a collection of songs from the past and of the present. Its
simplicity and authenticity captures an era forgotten while
being fresh and new. These are songs filled
with love, character and charm that you can hear on every
track.”
It is available via here,
iTunes, and Amazon and at shows. Visit
TimandNickiBluhm.com to preview tracks, watch a video,

THE
NEW ALBUM: 'DRIFTWOOD' OUT NOW February
1,
2011
The new
album 'Driftwood' is available on CD
and for download at nickibluhm.com as
well as iTunes and
all major digital distribution retailers. Here's what the
press has to say about it:
“Part
Karen Carpenter and Part Grace Slick, Bluhm’s
voice moves effortlessly between softer, country
tinged balladry and retro 60’s/70’s rock.” -No
Depression
"Golden. ... instantly announces a new voice on
the Americana scene."
- SF Chronicle
"...cements Bluhm’s
place as one of the best women in rock today. Driftwood is
seriously addictive and has such a well-crafted,
easy glide and end-to-end craftsmanship that it’s
hard to imagine someone not diggin’ it."
- Dirty Impound
"Driftwood is an
album one leaves on repeat because one spin simply won’t
do. It’s the kind of record one sings along to,
perhaps a little too loudly for polite company, and pushes
into the hands of friends because it’s so bloody
satisfying." - Jambase
