Frank Lauridsen [DK]
PH Caféen Sept. 27 2 pm - Adm. 100 kr. - Tickets: phbooking.dk

Frank Laurisen is considered by many as one of Denmarks best singers.
He was the lead singer in danish rocks flagship “Midnight Sun”, and earlier on “The Baronets”.
Although illness knocked Frank out of the musical circuit, he is after many years out of the spot light,
ready again and better than ever. The album “How It Feels To Be Frank”, is a convincing comeback,
where he with ease moves between the musical genres of blues, rhythm'n'blues, soul and a twist of
country.
His energetic and authentic voice, has often been denoted as a hybrid between Steve Winwood and
Ray Charles, is now matured, hardened and spiced, and is now all in all his own. So you can look f
orward to experiencing Frank Lauridsen together with a strong and competent band that intuitively
understands where Frank wants to go with his music.

her ong career preformed all over the world with many different bands, a.o. Kenn Lending

the acclaimed CD “Double Dynamite”, re-released in the US as “Magic”. Since then they have
played numerous occasions at Danish and international venues, here amongst the Copenhagen
Blues Festival in 2004 and 2011, they were warm-up for B.B. King in Circus Bygningen and
performed together with Rockin' Dopsie, Buddy Guy, Champion Jack Dupree and Luther Allison.
At the age of 71, Janice believes that its about time to get her own band together, the core of which,
naturally enough, are her musical friends Kenn Lending on guitar and Henning Verner on keyboard,
supplemented by the solid rhythm group Eric Sandager and Kim Thomsen from Sønderjylland.
With a bit of Dinah Washington cheek and Etta James authenticity in both voice and appearance,
Janice stands in front of her audience with a deep personal expression, a wonderful Blues Diva.
With her funky blues band, Kenn Linding and his guitar in front, one can only anticipate with joy and
happiness the magic bag of blues and a dynamite-show of international class this evening at Huset.

Lars Verdich Trio [DK]
Café Blågårds Apotek Sept. 27 9 pm - Adm. 20 kr.

With his hard hitting and superior rhythmic finger style, the guitarist Lars Verdich has the latest
years lifted himself up to be one of the genre's most enjoyable entertainers. With his precision
and empathy he manages to pull folk music/ ragtime out of his guitar, so that even the audience
on the back rows can feel it.
In 2011 he released the well received CD “Lars Verdich in Good Company”, also the title of his
trio, where Rikke Bjerre sets a solid foundation with her rhythmic cajon, and Kurt Mortensen
constantly reaches for the boundaries with his violin and mandolin.

Delta Blues Band feat. Miriam Mandipira [ZW/DK]
PH Caféen Sept. 27 9 pm - Adm. 150 kr. Tickets: phbooking.dk

Since their CD “Checkin' In” from 2009, the Delta Blues Band has had a rich collaboration with singer
Miriam Mandipira. Miriam appeared as a guest on “Checkin' In”, and after that she has performed
with the band at numerous club and festival gigs all over Scandinavia, to mutual satisfaction,
pride and joy. Miriam also appeared as a guest singer on Delta's latest CD, “Stonewashed”, and
rumour has it, that they are shortly releasing a new live CD.
When they played the Malmoe Festival, they got this review: “Here you really can talk about world
class! Blues and soul at it's absolutely finest. Miriam held the audience in a breathtaking grasp
at the Palladium theatre, with the help of the Danish blues guru Troels Jensen and his band”.

Miriam Mandipira is from Zimbabwe and started singing at a very young age.
In 1996 she joined the band Luck Street Blues as lead singer, and she played with this band until
she moved to South Afrika in 2005, where she joined this country's leading blues act, Strange Brew.
She earned herself the reputation as ’The Queen of Blues’ in sourthern Africa, but left it all behind,
when she moved to Denmark in 2007. Here she has displayed her great musical talent and broad
variety of styles in different band constellations, from straight blues to soul, gospel and jazz.
Miriam has a peowerful voice, and in her choise of music she draws upon her great inspirations
such as Ella Fitzgerald, Shirley Brown, Bessie Smith and Aretha Franklin.

The band originally started as Delta Blues & Boogie Band way back in -68,
and, to his day, is considered one of the founders of the Danish blues scene.
In a new configuration in the eight'es as Delta Cross Band, the band got huge
success, playing all major festivals and clubs in Northern Europe, and releasing
several top selling albums.
After their comeback in 2008, launched at that year's blues festival, the success
has continued. The band has remained almost the same as 40 years ago.
Still in front is singer, guitarist and piano player Troels Jensen - the 'grand old man'
of Danish Blues - flanked by his faithful crew, who’s been with the band, on and off,
since they started. With the release of "Checkin' In", Delta Blues Band explored new
paths, now with harp player Jorgen Lang as a fifth member, and they still serves first
class, hand played, blues music of the first order.
