The Arnesen Blues Band is my own blues project. After years of jamming in various unrehearsed blues "happenings", (blues being so easy, right?!), I felt I would like to deliver the music in a serious and accomplished way. Of course these two approaches are not mutually exclusive, yet it can be wonderful to have your music arranged, with good soloists and everyone starting and stopping at the same time. I (Thomas Arnesen) brought this band together in the spring of 2002 in order to play some material that was in some way modern, yet in blues form and with a genuine blues feel. Some of the songs are my own and some are traditional standards – old favorites and new ones. Some thoroughly arranged, others more loosely.I felt a need to develop an ambitious musical co-operation with a fixed constellation of good musicians within the area of blues music.The band is tight in every rhythm from shuffle to afro-cuban. We sometimes add an extra chord here and there. In the studio we play a little stricter than live, while on stage the band explodes.Blues, with its traditional 12 and 8 bar form, is to me a sort of musical essence that lies at the heart of human musical perception. It´s form challenges THE musician to find a personal, original way to develop while staying within its rigorous confines.
