The spring is once again heating up our black suits and we can't wait to get on the road and show, that the long Danish winter has defeated in quenching our thirst for the blues liquid. The band is constantly maturing, this winter we have been picking up inspiration in God's own country and in the great forests of South America. Also, our family has been expanded with new litte members, and we now have a genuine Swede in the band. Welcome to every last one of you and welcome to the Summer of 2009! Cheers!

Big thanks to everyone at Tappernoje last friday. It was indeed a ball!

It has finally happened: What the band has been saving up for all these years is now a reality.

The Copenhagen Blues Brothers now have our very own BLUESMOBILE!

No, it's not a '57 Chevy - in fact it's not even a Volkswagen. We thought we wanted to support our Nordic neighbours, and so consequently bought a NOKIA.
Now, you should know, that when you do make these calls to complaint over our last bar-bill, or have a request for us to play at the annual rodeo-event in Hurup, Thy, you will from now on not only be served by Mr. Fat Magic Fingers himself, but what's more: your call will be mediated by THE BLUESMOBILE!
The direct number for THE BLUESMOBILE can be found elsewhere on this site, so the rest is up to you!

We're back in business! Following a temporary shut-down of this site, we are now up-and-running again. We appologize toall of you that stopped by in vain. The shut-down was due to an incident where Elwood was caught in his attempt to steal thre packages of white toast bread from a construction crew in Køge. The police charged him, and to protect the evidence they decided shut down this web site. Elwood has now served his hours of community care, and therefore the police has chosen to reopen the site. We are, however still under 24/7 surveillance from the danish special forces. The following two nights we will be heating up our native Copenhagen, starting two party-fires at private parties - hoping to avoid police interference. Get an invitation or be square!

While the summer is still hesitating to heat up, we're heating up our most bluesy chops to get ready to hit the road in August and September. We are preparing great cocktails of shouting, dancing and plan to bring in a big zest of pure loving. Be sure to check out the concert list for the most recent update on when the tourbus will hit a venue near you! If we didn't include your local joint in our plans, don't cry; remember that you can always plan your own private party. Invite your finest chicks and honks and inform us when and where to show up, and we'll guarantee a party of rythm'n'blues, rock'n'roll and whole lot'a'loving.

thanks for the incredible interest for the Summer Competition. You definitely know your Blues Brothers! We had so many correct answers that we considered publishing a book or something... But that must wait.

We would also like to thank everybody at Hinge Sostival who made a fantastic party last weekend.

We have added a few more gigs to the calendar, and there are much more to come. Keep your attention to this site for more information.

Yours truly,

The Copenhagen Blues Brothers
