The next big names in Texas music
This time of year, plenty of music publications like to tell readers which up-and-coming acts will become big in the coming months. Is that interesting? Sure, if you like to dive headfirst into the murky pools of hype that still churn outside many recording labels' headquarters.
Instead, music critics Thor Christensen, Mike Daniel and Mario Tarradell would like to inform you about some Texas music acts that actually deserve success. "The big time" isn't necessarily inevitable for these nine notable artists. But in our judgment, it should be.
POP MUSIC: Our critics tell you which Texas acts deserve success in 2008
Nikki McKibbin
Grand Prairie-born Nikki McKibbin mixes the raspy power of Janis Joplin, the pop-rock propulsion of Pat Benatar and the dark allure of Evanescence's Amy Lee. On Unleashed, the former American Idol finalist's 2007 debut, the Fort Worth-based singer and her band amplify the catchy hooks, the rock bombast and the grass-roots passion. Check out the disc's first three songs: the explosive "The Lie," a crunchy cover of "Cry Little Sister" from The Lost Boys film and the rock-funk onslaught that is "Electrik." She does one more cover, an acoustic take on Mr. Big's "To Be With You" that showcases her expressive yet lived-in pipes.

Nikki and Joe, Thanks so much for your heartfelt commitment to both the North Texas Food Bank & Deep Ellum Foundation "Mural Project". October 11th in Dallas will be the hotest fashion event of the year, one for the books! We are so glad your onboard!
just wanted 2 say that your song inconsolable is amazing.I am a very shy singer and so when my grandmother died i was debating wether 2 sing or not so after i heard your song it made me want to sing so thanx again
You Rock, Nikki. I used to dance around my room listening to mr. Big as a kid, To Be With You was my favorate song by them. Never let anything stand in the way of your dreams, you are a true talent.
