Derrick är född i USA och har bl.a. spelat med Big Mama Thornton, Jimmy Dawkins och Albert Collins, men har varit i Sverige de senaste 15 åren. Han spelar en hel del eget material hämtat ifrån hans CD skivor.

Skivtips: Dreamwalking (1998 Big Walker) Still dreamwalking (2002 Big Walker) Hemsida: http://www.blueswalker.co På gitarr och sång medverkar Maxi Dread, i stället för nyligen avlidne Olle Boson. Maxi är känd ifrån bluesjammen på Stampen, men har också spelat på Bluesföreningens konserter på Skepps Bar och Danvikstulls Värdshus. MAXI DREAD är en bluesman som kör sina egna låtar varvat med såväl okända som välkända klassiker. Hans repertoar spänner från Delta blues till högoktanig Funk, med influenser ifrån Muddy Waters, Jimi Hendrix, Hound Dog Taylor, m.fl. Hans framträdanden kännetecknas av långa, känslomässiga solon som växlar mellan en viskning till primalskrikande bluesvrål med ett vibrato som tar publiken till extas. Hela tiden "on the egde". Maxi är en lysande artist med en scennärvaro som trotsar det mesta man sett. Skivtips: No illusions Communication breakdown (CD single 2004) Howling the blues live (2004 Bonntjyv) Hemsida: www.maxidread.com Stockholms Bluesförening finns också på My Space http://www.myspace.com/stockholmblues

  • Danvikstulls Världshus is on the street Alsnögatan 11. You can go there easy by bus from Slussen. A bus is leaving every minute and you only travel one stop to Londonviadukten, then you go about 400 meters. You can also travel by bus 53. Or you can walk from Medborgarplatsen Underground, by Folkungagatan, and it takes about 20 minutes. We will have blues every Saturday from kl 21 until 01. The restaurant is open on Saturdays from kl 19.
  • On saturday the 25th of august 2001 ,we had the final bluesparty at Tre Backar. It was a great loss for us to loose it after working there for over 20 years. Thank you very much Tre Backar for those lovely years. Recently (2004) we got the information that probably all the restaurant activities will end at Tre Backar.

    During 2001 until summer 2003 we was at Tuckens Källare on the south side of Stockholm, and 2003 - 2004 we had one succesful year at Skeppsbaren . Stockholm blues Society has to move it's activities to somewhere else, and now in the autumn of 2004, we start with blues concerts at AlaTurka and Nalen.

    In october 2004 we tried a new local called Cajento, at Danvikstull. We have had concerts there every saturday.

    During the summer of 2005 they changed owner and the changed the name back to the old one, Danvikstulls Värdshus.
