Easily one of the breakthrough classic rock bands of 2014, Blues Pills have been enchanting fans and media alike since they unleashed their self-titled, UK Top 75, debut last July.This young American-Swedish-French quartet create a very unique, intense and extraordinary rock atmosphere while at the same time having a major mainstream appeal that takes you right back to the time of BLUES PILLS' ancestors Aretha Franklin, The Original Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Cream. Driving bass lines, grooving drums and guitar solos from another planet by the only 17 year old Dorian Sorriaux, harmonized and tied together with such easiness, such delight, by Elin Larsson's incredible voice. With the idea to take soul music, combined with blues and rock'n'roll and turn it into a new force of unimaginable energy, intensity and freshness, the blonde archangel & soul-saviour Elin Larsson will guide you gently into a new world, the band's empire of soulful rock. Elin's powerful lyrics are full of emotion, her jazzy-soulful voice unfolds an outstanding beauty with a refreshing new take on the timeless and unquestionably noble art of rocknroll. The band's stunning 10-track debut, produced by Don Alsterberg (GRAVEYARD), was dubbed "one of the most exciting releases of the year" by Classic Rock Magazine while Mojo predicted that "good times lie ahead for Blues Pills." The album was rapidly backed by serious bout of roadwork. A sold-out November club run was followed a month later with a full UK tour as "special guests" to Rival Sons. Such is the demand for the band that another April headline run was announced immediately after. It couldn't be more fitting that the band's first live album was recorded at the renowned German Freak Valley Festival

What The New CD SHOULD'VE Been!!
This kills, sadly their new platter is but a SHADOW of this, just WHY they chose to EMASCULATE Dorrian is beyond me, but HERE, he just RULES, I SAW PETER GREEN in his PRIME, this young cat channels him better than anyone, I fear that they'll NEVER get back to this level, just WHY they've tried to be some poor man's version of DELANEY AND BONNIE, I'll never know, this was their high water mark, so buy this instead of the lame-o new one, close your eyes, think of what SHOULD'VE been, and hope to GOD that they wake up and convince ELIN that she's NOT a soul diva, that it's NOT 1971, turn Dorrian loose again, and win back the early true fans of this once was killer band before it's too late, THIS is what the second CD should've been like, so score it, and say a prayer that they come around to reality!

Love this band
Love this band. Great blues-hard rock-psych sound. Amazing vocals and also all musicians in this band are excellent. Very young and very talented. They are specially good in concert and I would recommend this live album. Cover is really great. Can't wait for new studio material and US tour in 2016.

Psychedelic Rock at its best. The lead singer reminds me of the singer for Babe Ruth.
