First “Nick and Ruell”, now “Nick
and Ruell and Ned the Band”, have been entertaining people in the Ozarks,
as well as across the country, for the past 28 years….. that’s right, 28
years. Formed from the Primordial Ooze that was Springfield’s early
music community, Nick and Ruell and Ned the Band exhibit off-beat humor,
superior musical talent, and themselves. In keeping with everything they
hold dear…. Nick and Ruell and Ned the Band are known for never, never,
ever
lying….. unless they absolutely have to. Nick Sibley (jingle mogul, ex
Skeleton, land baron, and multi-linguist) plays guitar, harmonica, and
sings. Ruell Chappell (former Ozark Mountain Daredevil, multi-media
prevaricator, award recipient and abstainer) plays piano and sings. Ned
(The Band) Wilkinson (amorously bedecked with musical talent yet devoid
of form, schooled in the ways of the fathers, seer of all …sayer of
nothing) plays everything else and sings. Together they are Nick and
Ruell and Ned the Band! Now and forever. Three yet one; One yet three!
Thank you.

Ruell..... the beginning... note Ruell is much younger and unable to
grow a beard. |

Here's NRN performing live at Hammons Hall for
Michael Feldman
Ruell was not afforded the courtesy of being in
this photo.......Andy Williams was there......
and lots of people were too........
this radio show spurred national interest in
NRN...calls flooded our switchboards asking for albums, t-shirts and
the like...NRN had entered the international arena!!! yeah.
You can listen to the program by clicking the
button below, click search, then type in Nick....
Now it's easy to get Nick and Ruell and Ned The
Band stuff!
(Just Look Left!)
Here's a picture of Ruell performing at a Big Time, High- Falootin'
Concert...since he didn't get in the Hammons Hall picture.... because
someone wasn't courteous enough to include him.
Now that's what I'm talkin' about! |
