Blue On Blue

About Me

The Name: Blue On Blue is a military term. It stems from the big NATO military execises in the 1980's - NATO forces where blue, Soviet troops red. Whenever NATO troops hit one from their own team, they had a blue on blue. The term is still used in the US army.Ancient History: Anders and Niels have been playing together since 1995 in different constellations through high school and after. The partnership evolved further when Thomas joined forces with the two blokes and song chick Trine Olsen in 1999. Calling themselves Silent Blue, they formed the style and feeling that has been further developed in the final line up - Blue On Blue. Trine Olsen decided to leave the band in early 2003 and Blue On Blue was a reality.Recent History: The reduced line up meant a turn in the musical style - to sharpen the knife. Songs, melodies and expression has developed into a cocktail of sound melody, explosive and unexpected turns and always with one finger on the pulse. The ambition is to continue making great songs and to spread them into the thriving music scene of wonderful Copenhagen.Blue On Blue contact email: [email protected]

Band Members: NIELS VINTHER: THE GUITAR AND VOCAL - Niels Vinther is an inveterate romantic in his song-developing. Working the only harmony-instrument in the band he has the responsebility of making the songs into good melodies. His integration of lyrics and melodies is his important contribution to the band. Can not be replaced! THOMAS OLSSON: THE DRUMS - Thomas Olsson is the backbone of rythm and control. He has a great enthusiasm especially for his cymbals and uses them with a touch of excellence. When songs need a brush-up he is the one to point it out. Can not be replaced! ANDERS RATHMANN: THE BASS - Anders Rathmann is working his little bass-baby out like few. It sounds like a one-million-bass but only cost him €250 back in 1994. Anders throws in melodies and great start-up riffs for almost all songs in Blue On Blue. Further, over the last couple of years Anders has added back-up vocals to his repetoire. Can not be replaced!
Influences: Bob Mould, Hüsker Dü, Sugar, Sonic Youth, Joy Division, New Order, The Smiths, Morrissey, The Jesus And Mary Chain, 16 Horsepower, Madrugada, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Sounds Like: Listen closely to the songs and you will know.
