Artist Biography
Available in:
The Swedish duo of Baba Blues is famous for sounding like a whole big band on stage with only voice, harmonica and two acoustic guitars put through a PA system. No machines or synthesizers, just pure handmade music... When they make records, they use a little more of technique and instruments as they make them for a different audience and listening situation. They want to bring a story into your living room.
Richard Danielson and Clas Gustavsson met in 1984 as members of a touring blues band called Diving Duck. A little fed up with the cover mentality of the ordinary blues band concept, they started to play acoustically on late hotel nights after the gigs to get the music out of their system. There they founded a form of blues rooted in the early pre-war blues, with no bass and drums, but with a modern rock attitude. In 1988 they started to play and make gigs under the name of Baba Blues and decided to make a tape to sell after the gigs. They had both played in several bands for many years being parts of the Swedish "prog-scene" going on in the seventies, with lyrics in Swedish and a slightly psychedelic "make your own thing" approach.
