Ramblin Minds

About Me

Ramblin Minds was formed by Leo, Anders, Anna and Katarina in 1987. Mikael became a permanent member in 1994. We have always played the blues except occasional Dylan/The Band-tribute gigs. We have also worked a lot with standup-comedian/singer Ronny Eriksson with whom we have made two CDs: Absolut gehör -94 and Vem lurar vem -98. On our own we have made two CDs: Strollin -00 and In a sober mind -05. We perform both original music and carefully selected covers. We tour mainly in Sweden but sometimes in Norway and Finland as well, at festivals, jazz & bluessocietys, clubs etc. We also do clinics/workshops in "How to play the blues". In 2004 we made a tour with Norrbotten Big Band exposing blues with horns. We nowadays often perform with saxophone section Horny Minds and when we do, the sound changes quite a bit. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
