Nirelli, Guy

He is a singer, keyboard player and specialist on the Hammond organ, who has been a member of the Buffalo group, Big Wheelie & The Hubcaps as well as other groups from that area such as the Meatsticks, Border City Blues Band and the Rabbit Foot Blues Band.

He had been a member of Patti Parks Band when she was just 16 but they had gone their own separate ways after it was disbanded.  After meeting up with her again several years later he urged her to start singing again and so the Patti Parks Band was reformed, with him once again playing keyboards for her and being part of the winning 2006 Memphis Bound competition line-up and also taking part in the 2007 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Tennessee.

He is also a member of Gregg Juke & The Mighty No-Stars who has made several recordings and performs a range of cover versions and original material.
