On July 14, we’ll be stopping by Olga and Mikkel, who runs Kvarnen (The Mill) in Kornhult for a good combo of passionate blues and food. Kornhult is located on the outskirts of Laholms municipality, close to both the border of Scania and Smaland. The Mill has a restaurant, café, gallery and grows their own vegetables. It is surrounded by beautiful forests, lakes and farmland. So join us the 14th of July for a countryside outing with plenty of entertainment and great food. The event Music and food costs SEK 295. See you there!

Review: Dala-Demokraten

2011-12-20 by Karin No Comment

There are blues bands, and then there’s Karin Rudefelt & Doctor Blues. This is a band that does not follow the rules and who keep crossing the borders. The band plays the blues but will happily blend in rock and jazz and also have a woman as one of the singers – and women aren’t supposed to sing the blues, right? But right it is. The music has made the band an innovator of blues music and Karin Rudefelt should indeed sing the blues. The band’s second singer is Lennart Olofsson. He also writes all the music and co-founded the band 30 years ago. Two guest artists are joining in. Erja Lyytinen is Finland’s blues queen and Brian Kramer is a renowned Bluesman from New York. Karin Rudefelt & Doctor Blues gives us a blues that grooves and that makes the listener happy. It’s heavy blues, but still far from the blues melancholic origin. It’s modern blues.

Review: Smalandsposten

2011-12-14 by Karin No Comment

Växjö’s blues pride Doctor Blues has now played for 30 years. Walk The Walk is the band’s fourth album. This time, they have also been assisted by two guest artists: American Brian Kramer and Finnish blues queen and guitar wonder Erja Lyytinen. It’s as always dark, heavy and melodic blues with a lot of finesse. Walk The Walk is also the band’s most varied album so far. Doctor Blues are always trying to find new off road paths from the cross roads of Robert Johnson. And most times they succeed quite well. Karin Rudefelt is also a superb blues singer.
