NRBQ are that rare group that's eclectic, stylistically innovative, and creatively ambitious while also sounding thoroughly unpretentious and accessible. At its best, NRBQ's music casually mixes up barrelhouse R&B, British Invasion pop, fourth-gear rockabilly, exploratory free jazz, and dozens of other flavors while giving it all a stomp-down rhythm that makes fans want to dance and expressing a sense of joy and easy good humor that comes straight from the heart. Over the course of a career that's lasted more than 40 years, the band has barely flirted with mainstream success but has still earned a sizable, passionate cult of fans that includes Elvis Costello, Paul McCartney, Keith Richards, Bonnie Raitt, Ira Kaplan, John Sebastian, and Dave Edmunds. The 2016 box set High Noon: A 50-Year Retrospective is a definitive look at the band's first half-century, while especially memorable albums along the way include 1972's Scraps, 1978's At Yankee Stadium, 1983's Grooves in Orbit, 1994's Message for the Mess Age, 2004's Dummy, and 2021's Dragnet.
