‘Heavy Hearts, Hard Fists,’ the second album from southern rock’n’soul fireball Nikki Hill, is out December 4th on Hound Gawd! Records. A punk rocker and closet gospel choir singer who’s emerged with “a soul that owes as much to AC/DC as Aretha” (Okayplayer), Nikki and her band — including Blues Music Award-winning husband/guitarist Matt Hill — peddle a roaring boogie that reflects an aficionado’s love of R&B and a rebel’s penchant for raising hell.
