Dan Hicks (singer)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dan Hicks (born December 9, 1941) is a musician whose style blends elements of folk and jazz (and bits of other genres, too). His music is also infused with a good dose of humor (e.g., one of his most popular songs: "How can I miss you when you won't go away").
Hicks was in the San Francisco band The Charlatans, but is perhaps best known for his work with "Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks" which existed from sometime in the mid-1960s until 1973, culminating in the album Last Train to Hicksville. He has continued to play in bands of other names, but has recently starting using the "Hot Licks" name again.
