THE BAND Erics Bluesband was born as a trio in november 1999. We started out playing at various pubs in Stockholm. The music we played at that time was infuenced by Cream, Jimi Hendrix, BB King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton. Bluesstandards mixed with our ow material. After playing a lot in Stockholm we got more and more gigs all around Sweden.
In 2001 we recorded our first album (Take One) with great guestmusicians "Master" Henry Gibson and Allen Finney.
After playing with different keyboardists for years, Henning joined the band in spring 2003, and we became a group of four.
In spring 2004 our second album (Theres An Angel In My Tree) was released with producer Brian Kramer. Guests on this album was among others Clas Yngstrom and Brian Kramer.
Our music is a mix of brittish blues and rock with a touch of american guitartradition (Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan), but we are not scared of using influences outside the blues-genre, as long as it blends with the music and feeling...
