The Hussy Hicks have a unique musical approach that spans many genres - from boisterous blues and roots, to contemporary folk fortified with delicious vocal harmonies; alt country inspired comedic tales from the road to 80's style power ballads. The girls, Julz Parker and Leesa Gentz are highly regarded for their musicality by their fellow musicians and punters alike, Julz primarily for her eccentric bluesy guitar playing and Leesa for her undeniably powerful vocal performances and commanding stage persona. Quotes: “Hussy Hicks has a sound all of its own... endlessly interesting and optimistic yet heartbreakingly honest and raw... and the music has a real capacity to connect with something universal in each of us.” – Susan Jarvis, Capital News “...what real world music is all about: sweat, beat, tapping feet, feel, passion... the joy of good music in a live concert.” – Andrea Ballarin, Manne.com, Italy "a strange diversity in the sound thanks to the nature of equal collaboration" - Anna Angel, Rave Magazine “a swirling blend of dreamy country twang and soulful blues influences” – Scott Templeton, Esperanto "You won't find a finer female lead guitarist than Julz Parker, who switched from acoustic to electric with ease. As for the voice of Leesa Gentz, it soars and screams yet can be as gentle as a feather tickling your back." - Derrick Cromb, Play the Blues Radio
