It takes a little effort to become the new queen of rock n roll. Nikki Hill has her share of trade secrets on how to make it as a blues diva… and thankfully only some of those are kept behind locked doors.
With her Australian tour just over a week down the calendar we asked Hill to share her rockstar knowledge with her fans down under.
What never leaves Nikki Hill’s side on tour? The soulful superstar lets us in on 5 essentials for taking it to the road.
Backpack
Holds all the stuff that helps me stay organized for tour: notebooks for to-do lists and lyrics/ideas, tour notes, calendar, microphones, laptop, phone, etc.
Neck pillow
An essential for the long drives, and snaps on and off of that trusty backpack.
Avocado or olive oil
A little travel size bottle oil, maybe sounds weird but in a pinch it’s a light skin moisturiser with a few drops, a hair conditioner, makeup remover, massage oil, and other inventive… things.
Lighters
Someone always needs one, or it seems like that when I don’t have one.
Aux cable
Whatever necessary to plug in the tunes!
