The lyrics of his songs range from the simply sublime to the sublimely ridiculous, all presented with his uniquely skewed and inscrutable touch.
Dan’s irresistible sense of rhythm, hip lyrical styling, laid-back vocalizing, and infamous on-stage wit will make most who listen fans for life. He’s a snappy dresser, too.
One of the central, defining figures of San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury scene of the 1960s, Hicks formed Dan Hicks & The Hot Licks in 1968 while he was still a drummer for The Charlatans, the group often cited as one of the originators of the SF psychedelic sound. The early 1970s proved to be a period of success for the groundbreaking band, paving the way for visionary outsiders ever since. Dan Hicks has continued to earn a reputation as a true original, with his signature eclecticism and humor.
