Nikki Mallory Nikki Paige Nikki first became interested in banjo when her sister, Mallory, started taking guitar lessons.  She asked for a banjo for her 9th birthday, and not only did she get her banjo, but she started taking lessons.  It became apparent right away that Nikki had a knack for banjo.  It wasn't long before Nikki and her sister started singing and playing together.  In fact, Nikki and Mallory were the "original" Pickin' Chicks! Nikki prefers to sing harmony with The Pickin' Chicks, but you'll still hear an occasional lead from her.  She mainly plays banjo with the group, but you'll also see her play bass and the guitar.  Her original song, "Nikki's Tune," can be heard on the Pickin' Chicks' second CD "Small Town Girls." Some of Nikki's musical accomplishments include: January 2011 - MABC Fiddle & Banjo Contest:  1st Place Junior Banjo Division & Most Entertaining Performer March 2011 - MABC Fiddle, Banjo & Talent Contest:  1st Place Junior Banjo Division & Most Entertaining Performer March 2011 - MABC Fiddle, Banjo & Talent Contest:  1st Place Junior Talent Contest (The Pickin' Chicks) August 2011 - Illinois State Fair, Springfield IL:  1st Place Junior Banjo (2nd year in a row!)
