Ribsys Nickel

"There are few bands that are as quintessentially Santa Cruz as Ribsys Nickel. Melting three of the town's musical passions—rock, laid-back reggae and punk—this band could serve as a veritable soundtrack to Santa Cruz. The band has seen a fair amount of national interest--including songs on MTV and surf videos, but they keep their affiliations local. All about representing their beloved Westside”
