New material from The Blues is coming up soon (late September). Before that, check this home-made clip from when they were in Berlin and recorded a couple of songs together with Boris Wilsdorf: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sd_K3CwXRls&feature=related

And talking about The Blues, this is what an american radio host said about the band (great words indeed); ”The Music doesn´t sound ”Swedish” – they are from Sweden, just below the Arctic circle. And they don´t sound like a duo – the sound is more like a full, rockin´blues band. They are ”The Blues” but it isn´t your grand-father´s or even your father´s blues… it´s new blues, blues with a passion. While they cite, among other influences, Bessie Smith and Big Mama Thornton, their love of contemporary dance music is evident in both tracks as well. Here´s hoping they give us more sounds in the months and years to come. Their music is, as their MySpace declares, ”The reason to get up in the morning.” Play it loud.” by Patrick Turlo
