About
The members of the band are vocalist and guitarist Claes Nilsson, bassist Fredrik Nilsson, and drummer Henrik Gillgren. The repertoire consists mainly of trio-based music and the band’s sound mixes elements of blues from both Chicago and Texas, combined with a rough Nordic edge, which adds a significant element to the band’s attitude and groove.
The band has released three full-length albums: “Nasty Weather” (2013), “Everybody’s Gotta Go” (2016) and “III” (2018). With the exception of the blues standard “St. James Infirmary Blues” from their first album, they have concentrated on original material written by Claes Nilsson. The band “tests” the songs on the audience for a couple of concerts before deciding whether or not they will be recorded in the studio.
Their latest album, “III”, was recorded during the spring of 2018 and was released by On the Hill Recordings in August 2018. It is available worldwide at cdbaby.com. The album contains ten tracks of original music and is receiving rave reviews.
