First there were the three, namely the seasoned bandleader Jesper Bjarnesen – or simply JB – on vocals and electric guitar, his son Oscar Martin “Big O” Eriksen on drums and Jais Kurecko Eriksen on bass. The latter two will be known for their long-standing membership in the well-established jump blues band Big O & the Blue Quarters. Jais Kurecko Eriksen however left this band recently.

These three musicians formed Det Hyggelige Blues Band in 2015 and had a regular engagement at Eydes Kælder in the center of Horsens. The trio quickly became a popular live name with their tight, swinging interpretations of various blues numbers as well as a few original compositions. The trio eventually emerged from Eydes Kælder and began touring, reaching a career high point in 2018 when they played at the Swedish Gothenburg Blues Festival. In 2020, Det Hyggelige Blues Band began recording their debut album "Thank You Blues" and changed their name to JB & the Hüggeli.

At the same time, they expanded the lineup with saxophonist Hans Jørgen “Hanse” Jensen who has been around a lot and is featured on the Big Creek Slim album "Ramblin’ Big Creek". They also sneaked in another new orchestra member through the back door, namely jazz and blues keyboardist Kim Nedergaard, who many remember from the legendary blues and rhythm & blues orchestra Kims Bacon. At 72 years old, Kim Nedergaard is admirably still very much in the swing of things. He is a regular member of the highly acclaimed Aarhusian Bourbon Street Jazzband, and can also be heard with the rest of Kims Bacon on Jesper Bjarnesen's still popular Christmas cd "Swinging Christmas" which saw the light of day in 2001. /Peter Widmer, Bluesnews.dk

Bass and drums are in the hands of Jais K. Eriksen and Oscar M. Eriksen, respectively. They're both part of the Big O & The Blue Quarters. A hot name on the Danish blues scene, where Oscar M. Eriksen is in the vocal front, with a stack of mouth harps in the back pocket, and Jais K. Eriksen lays the solid foundation on both electric and double bass. But that's another story! Meet "JB & THE HÜGGELI" if you get the chance.
