Messages regarding booking, etc. can be sent directly to Microwave Dave at www.myspace.com/mdandn or at micdave@hiwaay.net Thanks, James>>>>>>> Fifteen-plus years of performances in the U.S and Europe and five albums with more on the way have helped Microwave Dave & The Nukes establish a wide multinational audience. Venues vary from French soccer stadiums to Bike Week in Daytona Beach, from blues cruises on the Big Red Boat to neighborhood saloons, but the thousands of shows delivered by the band all reflect one core element: the heritage blues music enjoys as a lifter of spirits. As Microwave Dave puts it: Blues is Americas firstand still bestself-help program. Formed in 1989, Microwave Dave & the Nukes blues apprenticeship included a three-year stint as Jerry Boogie McCains back-up band, interspersed with shows backing Bo Diddley, whose styles are integral flavors in the bands recipe. Microwave Dave & the Nukes are best known for their 1995 European hit "Road Runner" from the album " Goodnight Dear" wich was produced by Johnny Sandlin (Allman Brothers, Widespread Panic).
