2nd Saturday of the Month will feature Live Music with food selections and libations. This time we welcome Ricky Nye!!!

Blues, boogie woogie, ballads and classic New Orleans jazz and R&B all come

from the hands and heart of Cincinnati, Ohio pianist RICKY NYE. Inducted into

the International Boogie Woogie Hall Of Fame in 2013, Ricky has been the

recipient of numerous awards given by CityBeat Magazine and The Cincinnati

Enquirer throughout the years. The driving force behind the annual BLUES &

BOOGIE PIANO SUMMIT held in Northern Kentucky from 1999-2017 and

reinstated in 2025, Ricky regularly performs his infectious blend of American

roots music at concerts and clubs throughout the U.S. and has maintained a

career in Europe and the U.K. for over twenty five years.

“Known for its rollicking, foot-stomping jubilance, the boogie-woogie sound

erupted from the American South during the late 1920s. This piano-centric

subgenre of the jazz tradition drew its structural elements from the blues and

spirituals, but introduced an intoxicating rhythmic complexity that inspired

generations of young dancers. Ricky Nye is one of the nation’s leading players

and preservationists of boogie-woogie, stunning audiences with unmatched authenticity, virtuosic speed and playful arrangements”- Vail Jazz
