"... The rollicking, rocking tunes soon drew fans from
across the 62-acre festival site ... high-energy, fun-filled
fusion of Louisiana rock & roll, good old-fashioned blues, and
rockabilly sprinkled with a bit of Tex-Mex, and garnished with
soul." (Live Magazine, USA, efter Doheny-festivalen i
Kalifornien.)
"Have you been waiting 'round for another band like The
Fabulous Thunderbirds to come along? Well your wait is over,
Bluebirds have arrived. Bluebirds hail from the murky swamps of
Sweden ... raw and exciting ... hip-shaking music ... Patric
Carlson's guitar work is blistering ... if you didn't know they
were from Sweden, you'd swear you were listening to one of top
blues outfits from the USA." (Blues Association of
Queensland, Australien).»
