The Rugged Nuggets

The Rugged Nuggets

The Rugged Nuggets has been played on NTS shows including La Cosecha Internacional w/ XOLO, with Yo Todo Tu Yo first played on 24 February 2013.

Emerging from the tight-knit Los Angeles funk/soul community, The Rugged Nuggets are now the newest collective to carry the torch of instrumental music. What started out as a studio side project by Simple Citizens’ guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Judson McDaniel, quickly spawned into a 7-piece live band who’s rugged sound pays homage to classic soul, soul-jazz and afro-funk music.

The RN sound is inspired, realized and shaped by the city landscape and culture including the musicians that reside within. Thus giving the Nuggets an alternating cast of LA based players, including members of Breakestra, Simple Citizens, Orgone, Connie Price & the Keystones, Macy Gray, The Rebirth etc.
