The Alabama Lovesnakes was formed in 2006 in Karlstad, Sweden, during the recording of Claes Nilsson's country project "The Wheels" (also available on CD Baby). Late nights in the studio aroused an irresistible feeling of the band that just had to break loose - with the blues. Ten years down the road, the band is still made up of the same members, and has logged countless miles and gigs all over Sweden. The band has been a regular headliner at the largest blues festival Åmåls Bluesfest and they attract great attention wherever they play.

The members of the band are vocalist and guitarist Claes "Crocodile" Nilsson (b. 1977), bassist Fredrik Nilsson (b. 1974) and drummer Henrik Gillgren (b. 1977). The songs are written by Claes and the whole band picks covers they want to do as the rest of their material. The repertoire consists mainly of trio-based music and the band’s sound mixes elements of both Chicago and Texas, combined with a Nordic roughness, which puts a special touch on the band's attitude and groove. Over the years the band has repeatedly appeared at major blues festivals in Sweden and has also played live on national radio several times.

This authorized bootleg is recorded with a ZOOM H2 mobile recording unit at a small Café in Karlstad. This is how the band sound live!
