The late 1960s were years of change - also musically. The blues became one of the driving forces in the newly awakened rock music and new icons such as John Mayall, Cream, Fleetwood Mac in the UK and Johnny Winter, Mike Bloomfield, Allman Brothers in the United States quickly found their intellectual fathers, among others. Howlin´ Wolf, Muddy Waters, B.B. King.
The musicians of the Somebody Wrong blues band were children of that time. Their musical experiences go far into the 70s, the band itself was founded in 1983 as a loose association of students. In the meantime the band has made a name for itself regionally and nationally.
The "Somebody Wrong Bluesband" is one of the longest-serving blues bands in the Aachen region. In 1991 Somebody Wrong launched the "Blues Night at Jakobshof" and appeared on the stage in the legendary music club in Aachen more than 20 times. Since the “Aus” for the Jakobshof, the Aachen Blues Night has taken place in the “Franz”. Here, too, the Somebody Wrong Blues Band is the host - and the house is always sold out.
The music of the septet is based on the common roots in the blues and is a melting pot in which new elements from different directions are constantly finding their way. The focus is on joint improvisation. A live performance by the somebody wrong blues band is always an adventure trip and a reminiscence of the 1960s. How did a concertgoer put his euphoria so aptly: "Your hair will grow smooth again!"
So ist es nur konsequent, dass alle bislang veröffentlichten CDs live aufgenommen wurden:
• Somebody Wrong Bluesband (1993)
• Just Live (2002)
• Somebody Wrong Bluesband and Friends (2012)
Das vierte Album ist in Arbeit.
