"A Path of Evolution and Empowerment"

Since their formation in the Midwest in late 2011, the story of Blues Pills appears to be a straightforward one. The rock quartet, led by songwriters Zack Anderson and Elin Larsson, swiftly rose from dingy, packed bars to performing at renowned festivals such as Download, Rock am Ring, and Wacken Open Air. It seemed like a classic success tale. However, beneath the layers of their heavy psychedelic blues rock sound and Larsson's soulful, powerhouse vocals, lies a deep yearning for change.

Blues Pills has always been driven by a restless desire for growth—both in the human mind and in the diverse musical influences they have embraced. From blackened soul to mesmerizing 60s garage rock and the soul-stirring blues, they have embarked on a fascinating journey of musical exploration. During their hiatus, Blues Pills experienced a sort of reincarnation, which led them to produce and record a new album in the summer of 2020. The album was expertly mixed by Grammy Award-winning Andrew Scheps, renowned for his work with artists like Red Hot Chili Peppers, Iggy Pop, Adele, Black Sabbath, Rival Sons, and Hozier.

If you were captivated by the weightiness of their debut self-titled album and enthralled by the psychedelic soul of "Lady in Gold" (which claimed the top spot in Germany), you will be equally mesmerized by the impact of their latest release. Empowered by the addition of talented bass player Kristoffer Schanders and their banana-loving drummer André Kvarnström, complemented by Larsson's haunting vocals and Anderson's impressive skills on lead guitar, the band has returned to their roots. They have immersed themselves in the raw power of rock 'n' roll and blues, infused with a touch of soul.

Blues Pills continues to evolve and thrive on their musical odyssey, delivering a powerful dose of their unique sound with each album. This latest chapter promises to be a transformative experience for both the band and their devoted listeners.
