Mike Hammar and the Nails

Zenn VuDu w/special guest, saxman Danny Sandoval!

Among the powerful blues, blues-rock, and Americana bands creating original music in the Central California heartland, Mike Hammar and the Nails register highest on the

blues Richter scale. It’s why Mike and his terrific band won the local IBC here in Sacramento in 2025 and is the band the SBS proudly sent to Memphis for the International Blues Challenge

in January of 2026. They became official semi-finalists, made waves, made international friends and truly have become one of the top “ambassadors of the blues” the SBS ever sent south.

Zenn Vudu is Deep Grooves and Soulful Roots. More than twenty years in the making, Zenn VuDu is the creative collaboration of guitarist, producer, and songwriter Steve Dunne

of legendary Bay Area soul-rock pioneers Cold Blood, powerhouse vocalist, songwriter, and Sacramento Blues Society Hall of Fame

inductee Dana Moret, and veteran Bay Area funk musician and songwriter Larry Davis. Their original music moves effortlessly from soul and funk to jazz,

Americana, and indie rock, weaving diverse influences into a sound that remains unmistakably their own.

On this night,the bell ringer in both of their midsts will be special guest, SBS Hall of Famer Danny Sandoval.

A real saxophone colossus showman, Danny blows, and the earth knows. He leads his own band, Danny Sandoval & His Amigos, and is a featured star in Mick Martin’s Big Blues Band.
