\"BrookeThe Boise Beat invited me to hear Brooke Nicole & The Jake Leg <\/span><\/span>\u00a0practice for their upcoming show at \u00a0the Barrelhouse<\/a>. Being greeted by a couple of friendly dogs and a very nice lady with pink hair was encouraging. To be welcomed that warmly into their home was an indication of notes to come. Immediately the band felt comfortable. Having been to numerous band practices, excitement and anticipation once again stirred inside me. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Brooke Nicole & The Jake Leg band would begin to play after a short get to know \u201cus\u201d session. They are a very nice mature group. I greeted Dale Wilson first, whom breathes the blues through his blues harp. When he is needed to play a lead on guitar or play with Brook Nicole he steps up well. He and Brooke are the center of: Bob Solomon on guitar, Luke Bishop on Bass (who used to keep the band Asphalt going with solid bass). Tony Songer introduced himself with confidence from behind the kit. With over a century of playing and performing between them their goal is to relay the love they have for music to the audience. They play the blues with a bit of rock n roll that audience\u2019s fall in love with. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The sound was right from the first warm up song. Immediately they were what bands want to be. Authentic! The house filled up with a nice warm groove. We all got comfortable. I began looking forward to hearing more. Brooke Nicole & The Jake Leg are at Barrelhouse on Glenwood exclusively January 8th<\/sup>! Let the Good Times Roll! Writing that down, I knew when they play good times are going to roll. Still warmups, they transitioned to The Eagles \u201cTake it Easy\u201d.<\/i> The Eagles \u201cHeartache Tonight<\/i>\u201d was sung with ease by Brooke Nicole. Her voice and charisma stand out as the focal point of the band. She will direct listeners to the dance floor with her confident moves and joy of music. Brooke can, at the drop of her hat, put you in a listenable mood so that your pint or glass of wine feels as good as you feel.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
