The RueMates are Nikki Matteson, Rich Rue, Liz Draper, Jon Olson & Jimmy T. Nikki is the singer of the group & plays guitar. Rich provides backing vocals, and he plays slide and fingerstyle on many guitars, including a 1932 National Duolian resophonic. Liz and Jon round everything out playing upright bass, and Jimmy T. keeps a steady beat on the drums when The Ruemates play as a full band. Nikki & The RueMates' current CD, We All Live Together, blends country blues, folk, psychedelic, and features one spiritual, "Down On Me", and the beautiful country ballad, "Sleepless Nights." It is for sale at shows, the Electric Fetus in Minneapolis, MN & online at CDBABY.
