The blues musicians Lennart Olofsson from Sweden and Dan Bindel from Denmark met in the spring of 1980 in Växjö. Sweet music arose. Dan brought his slide-based delta blues and Lennart his roots in the heavier Chicago blues and white British 60s blues. They let their influences merge into an exciting decoction. The result was the cult blues band Doctor Blues. A decisive milestone in the band's history was when the blues singer Karin Rudefelt entered the scene in 1996, and the vocal part of the music gained a new dimension. Nowadays, the band therefore calls themself "Karin Rudefelt & Doctor Blues".

Karin Rudefelt & Doctor Blues have toured around Sweden and performed in most blues-profile places, like the biggest blues festivals and most important clubs that Sweden has to offer. The band is regarded as innovators of blues as a genre and likes to experiment and push the boundaries of the blues into new dimensions. Yet always with both feet deeply rooted in the traditional mould.

Personnel: Karin Rudefelt (vocals); Lennart Olofsson (guitar, vocals); Anders Wemming (guitar, harmonica); Peter Borgström (bass, vocals); Tobias Magnusson (drums).
