The Steynbery Gallery

Formerly known as "Jill's Knight Out", long time friends and bandmates Jill Knight, Rob Strom, Pam Delgado and Jeri Jones were a Central Coast favorite for many years. Voted Best Band for 3 years running in the New Times Arts and Entertainment Magazine, the group played up and down the Central Coast of California and regularly at some of LA's most famous venues. In the late nineties the four moved on with separate musical journeys. Pam and Jeri co-founded the popular Bay Area band "Blame Sally' which later included Rob. Jill continued her solo songwriting career winning numerous awards and placing her music in film. The four remained friends and always enjoyed the opportunity to play together when paths would cross at various festivals and venues. They reunited for a show at Berkeley's premier music hall, "The Freight and Salvage" in August of 2015 and had such overwhelming response that they knew they needed to take the next step and commit. Something unique and magical happens when these four energies coalesce that cannot be reproduced in any other way, shape or form. Songs, strings and voices soar, organic and true…like a homecoming, a soul circle now complete. The Luckys are lucky and can’t wait to share this ineffable magic with you!

Press Quotes/The Luckys

Knight played with Delgado, {Strom} and Jones … well before Blame Sally went on to wide acclaim, and they seemed to have picked up where they left off. The chemistry and camaraderie between the artists was palpable. No Depression Magazine, show review (Freight and Salvage Berkeley, CA) August 2015
