Everyone, really everyone, was completely thrilled after her debut in Hamburg and her first concert with us at Nica. A dancing crowd, standing ovations and beaming people - that's what happens after a good two hours with this terrific musician. A highlight in the program and incomprehensibly still a real insider tip is singer Kennedy with this band from New York. They are considered the hottest soul gig in a long time - and rightly so. Kennedy Administration are sensual yet punchy, soulful, jazzy and funky – paired with a lot of R&B, hip hop and pop. Namesake and frontwoman Kennedy comes from Detroit. She has a vocal style that is somewhere between Sade and Luther Vandross. The band founder is keyboardist Ondre J. Pivec, who has made a name for himself in Lauryn Hill's band and is currently strengthening Gregory Porter's band live. We ́ll meet on the dancefloor!
