Pristine


Blues Tuesday, time for some kick ass blues.
So where to go for it? How about Norway?
Couldn't be better.

Pristine is a psychedelic rock blues band that hails from Tromsø wich is located in the northern arctic region of Norway, and with the charismatic redhead Heidi Solheim in front they forge their music with power, passion and intensity - blues with trace of southern rock, soul and funk.

The band leader is singer/songwriter Heidi Solheim, who is responsible for both lyricism and music writing with the entire band assisting with the arrangements.

Pristine are:
Heidi Solheim - vocal
Espen Elverum Jakobsen - guitar 
Åsmund Wilter Eriksson - bass
Anders Oskal - hammond organ
Kim Karlsen - drums

So kick back and enjoy some great blues sounds, also keep an eye open for their great new album - Detoxing.


Breaking Bad Special acoustic version of Breaking Bad from the debut album "Detoxing", performed at the Norwegian Blues Unions annual meeting in 2011.




Damage Is Done From the same gig as above.


And here's a couple of gigs from opposite sides of the pond, one in the Mecca of the blues, Beale Street Memphis and the other back home in Norway.
