Blue Note Napa
Locals Night Feature: Spike Sikes & His Awesome Hotcakes

    The Awesome Hotcakes were named “Best Blues Band” three years in a row in the Napa, Sonoma, and Marin Counties by readers of both the Pacific Sun and The North Bay Bohemian.
    “No one is making this kind of music anymore!” 

    Like hotcakes themselves, it goes by many names. Soul. Swing. Rhythm & Blues. Jazz. Jump. It’s a sound that’s classic and simple, but when it’s done right, it hits the spot, and has you grinning from ear to ear. 

    From the Texas blues joints he cut his teeth in to the funky halls of New Orleans, he was always studying the music, trying to find just the right recipe. It makes perfect sense that he found his bandmates in Sonoma County, a music scene that has fostered many eclectic artists for decades.

      Just The Right Recipe… The most frequently heard comment after a Spike’s Awesome Hotcakes gig goes something like this –

      “No one is making this kind of music anymore!”

      But what, exactly, is “this kind of music?”

      Like hotcakes themselves, it goes by many names. Soul. Swing. Rhythm & Blues. Jazz. Jump. It’s a sound that’s classic and simple, but when it’s done right, it hits the spot, and has you grinning from ear to ear. Spike has spent years searching for this sound.

      From the Texas blues joints he cut his teeth into the funky halls of New Orleans, he was always studying the music, trying to find just the right recipe. It makes perfect sense that he found his bandmates in Sonoma County, a music scene that has fostered many eclectic artists for decades.

      What he didn’t know was how hungry audiences were for “this kind of music.” You might say they’ve been eating it up like…Hotcakes!
