MySpace a place for friends

Meet the sister of Brother 2 Brother. Sister Sandy Hickey. Sandy has been rocking the Houston music scene since 1985 and has earned her reputation as one of Houston's most respected blues divas. Bluesy, gutsy and sultry, her vocals are the epitome of a Texas Blues singer. She can turn her voice on a dime from growling blues to sweet nuanced tones and can wrap an audience around her little finger. In the early 90’s, Sandy was co-owner of Mickey’s Mardi Gras on Washington Avenue in Houston. Later, in 1997, Sandy opened Silky’s Blues Bar in that same location and featured some of the most prominent blues people in the area. Then, in 2000, Sandy released her own CD with the Soul Providers called "Ice Cream, Cigarettes, and a Good Glass of Wine." She received great reviews and in that same year she was nominated "Best Female Vocalist" in the Houston Press Music Awards! Not to mention she has also worked very hard to improve Houston's Live Music Scene in various ways including serving four terms as President of the Houston Blues Society!

Jon Cometta - Lead Guitar

Jon, or "JC" as he's better known, hails from Tucson, Arizona. He played locally with one of the hottest blues bands in the city when he caught the eye of Lil Brian from the Zydeco Travelers. Brian liked his playing so much that he offered "JC" a touring gig that lasted for 6 years. JC liked Houston so much, he decided to stay after he left the band in 2004. He played with Sandy Hickey and the Soul Providers when he wasn't touring and stayed on fulltime when he left Lil Brian to start his own company. He has also played with other great Houston artists such as Tommy Dardar, Jabo, Kid Reese and RaRa Carter. JC possesses a skill beyond his years and is a natural for the blues!

Norm Uhl - Keys, Harmonica, & Vocals

He used to do the News. Now he does the Blues. Norm Uhl was a fixture in the local television news serving as an on-air reporter for nearly 15 years on Houston's CBS affiliate. He reported live on such major stories as the Waco Siege and the Fall of the Berlin Wall. Over his career, he has filed stories for NBC, ABC, CBS and CNN. The award winning journalist is perhaps better known for his humorous features, especially "Norm at Work", where he featured the working men and women of Texas, often giving their jobs a try. While in the hectic news business, Norm had to put his music on the back burner. But once he left the news business, blues was one of his first endeavors. Norm played keyboards and harmonica with "Mean Gene Kelton and the Die Hards" for two years, which is where he met Bass Player Mike "Lowboy" Leubner.

Mike "Lowboy" Leubner - Bass & Vocals

Also born and raised in Houston, in the Spring Branch area, Mike has loved and studied music since early childhood. After having played and sharing the bill with such notables as Foghat, Sherman Robertson, Roy Head, Mean Gene Kelton, Mark May, Joe "King" Carasco, Diunna Greenleaf, and many others, "Lowboy" has devoted his time and talent to Brother 2 Brother. Mike and Norm are founding members of B2B so the Blues Tradition is carried on in B2B with a little R&B and Rock thrown in for good measure. Not to mention B2B's original songs, several of which were penned by Mike Leubner. And he can sing! Lowboy's rendition of Jimmy Thackery's "Cool Guitars", (sell the bitch's car), is always a crowd favorite and is one of our most requested songs.

Dan Jones - Drums

Drummer Dan Jones was born and raised in Chicago, a city known for it's wind and it's blues. Both would play important roles in Dan's life. As an airline pilot he rides the wind. As B2B's drummer he plays the blues and classic rock. Dan started playing drums in high school. He has played in many bands over the years and has played many styles. He counts among his influences jazz drummers Billy Cobham, Joe Morello and Steve Gadd. Another favorite is David Garibaldi from Tower of Power. Dan says, " I couldn't carry these drummers sticks to their gigs, but I enjoy listening to them and wonder how did he do that?" How about that! All that talent and he's modest to boot. Don't let him fool you. This guy's a monster on drums. He rocks the blues with jazz finesse and puts a little funk into the equation for good measure. Dan's wide range of influences from rock to jazz to funk to blues adds a new dimension to the B2B sound!
