Nikki’s Wives – DREAM TOUR

In this Dream Tour segment, the alternative pop band, Nikki’s Wives, let you know who’d they would like on their ultimate tour lineup. You can check out the feature, after the break.

If we could pick anyone we liked to magically play together for one show, I think we would go with Rick James, Portishead, Peter Gabriel, and The Runaways. We all have so many artists we listen to that it’s hard to narrow it down to only a few!

Seeing a Rick James show would be insane. We all really like how badass Rick James is; he truly does whatever he wants, which we all dig. He might actually be a little insane, so seeing one of his concerts would be life altering to say the least.

The second band to add to this dream tour would definitely be Portishead. Portishead is one of our biggest inspirations, not only musically, but visually as well. A video we took a lot of inspiration from was their Roseland concert in New York.

Peter Gabriel is another musician that we took a lot of influence from, before writing our EP we constantly were playing his album Up. His songs are so iconic that hearing how he plays/changes them live would be super cool to see.

The Runaways are one of those bands that almost made it big, but because of personal issues never made it past the first couple of years. The Runaways comprised of Joan Jett, Cherrie Currie, Lita Ford, and Sandy West. Despite their short run, these girls paved the way for female rock musicians in the United States. I think we would all really enjoy seeing girl power at its peak, especially since our band is super into all that stuff. If all these musicians decided to play together it would be super weird, but also the coolest concert probably ever.
