Since their inception in 2005, A Nickel Bag of Funk has become a Savannah mainstay in the world of R&B, rock and soul music. The musicianship is stellar, and vocalist/bandleader Leslie Adele is a true powerhouse (not to mention, an unbelievable drummer). They’re a workhorse band that plays all the time, and they’re certainly not to be missed whenever you get the chance.

Runner-up: Voodoo Soup
