Fick portrayed the role of Elvis's bass player, Bill Black, in the 2006 Johnny Cash biopic, Walk the Line. "Slick" Joe Fick has performed or recorded with Sonny Burgess, James Burton, D.J. Fontana, Wanda Jackson, the Jordanaires, and Boots Randolph. His rockabilly band, the Dempseys, was named Beale Street Entertainers of the Year in 2009. The Dempseys are a unique musical trio based in Memphis, TN, are known for their brand of high octane rockabilly music and their much talked about live show. The band’s energetic live performances are unlike any show in the current popular music scene and have been referred to by the Rockabilly Hall of Fame as “the most entertaining rockabilly show on the planet.” The group emphasizes “entertainment” including bass fiddle stunts, instrument swapping, a flaming trumpet and a good - humored repertoire.
A move to Nashville in 2009 brought him to Lower Broadway, where he spent two years as a member of The Travis Mann Band. Currently, “Slick” Joe can be found dazzling audiences from around the world as a member of both The Don Kelley Band and The Silver Threads, seven days a week!
The Silver Threads play authentic classic country music. They perform a true cross-section of honky tonk classics, mostly from the 50s and 60s, fronted by lead singer Eileen Rose.
