Nikki Matteson and Rich Rue are a musical duo from Minnesota, based in Minneapolis. Both play guitar and Nikki sings. In the past, they went by the name, 'Nikki & The RueMates.' Music from the 1950s and 1960s, as well as blues music, especially country blues and female blues, inspires their songwriting. When they perform in front of an audience, they create a joyful experience with Rich’s blistering slide guitar and Nikki’s melodious singing. ‘Sugar in the Rock’ is their latest album.
