Among the many fine musicians in the area are these two knuckleheads! This is Dick Deluxe and Bill Stuve. Bill's lived in this neighborhood for 30 years and is an 8 time WC Handy bass player of the year nominee. In addition to his 20 plus years with Rod Piazza, he's played with a who's who or blues artists throughout the world. He's currently recording and touring with Candye Kane-when he's not hanging in the hood and playing every third Thursday at the Pike with Dick and PIke owner Chris Reece.
Dick Deluxe is a relative newbie to the area and likes it so much he's moved here! A founding member of the Clubfoot Orchestra, Dick these days plays solo and fronts the Dick Deluxe Revue-a revolving cast of some of the finest musicians in Southern California.
ONe of the great things about our little corner of the world is the many interesting and talented folks who live, play and work here!
