  • Bio

    Although the world is constantly changing, some things remain. Like Hamlet, hot dogs, the Himalayas. And blues music. The blues was born in the delta and got electrified further up north. Then it was spread around the world. In Arvika, Sweden, the blues is fresh and vigorous, thanks to T-Bear & The Dukes of Rhythm. Here, in the deep woods of western Sweden, close to the norwegian border, the storytelling tradition is very much alive. The blue notes come naturally. Some might say the blues is just pure nostalgia. In Arvika, we don't. The blues is about the past, the present and the future. Just as important and challenging as it once was in the backstreets of Chicago. T-Bear & The Dukes of Rhythm have been the blues ambassadors of Arvika since 2004, composing and interpreting r&b and blues like there was no tomorrow. They are on a mission. Broadcasted all the way from Tokyo to Timbuktu, with two studio albums so far, T-Bear and his hellhounds have won global respect within the blues community. T-Bear regroups his troops, according to your wishes: festivals or clubs, horn section or harmonica? Ok, it's often cold in Sweden, but T-Bear's blues glows. It glows with passion and honesty, in the firm conviction that the blues is here to stay. Just like Hamlet, hot dogs and the Himalayas.

    Hallå!

    Jo en av de fina bitarna med det där spelandet är att man träffar folk som är lika "lost" som en själv.
    Man känner sig lite mindre ensam på nåt vis...
    Resan hem innhöll bl.a. en diskussion om en tjeckisk tv serie om olika mordfall som gick på SVT under de äldre i bandets barndom...

    Ja ni överlevde flygresan uppenbarligen?
    Nå roliga luftgropar?
