Magnus Lanshammar: bass
Magnus was formerly a member of the semilegendary
Göteborg blues band The Instigators, an outfit who brought
their rock'n'bowl sound not only to European blues festivals
but also across the waters to the clubs of New Orleans. The
band called it a day in spring 2004 and by now Magnus has effortlessly
turned into a genuine Blue Delivery. Playing instruments of
both the electric and the acoustic variety, he has actually
been seen transforming a perfectly ordinary stand-up bass into
a lie-down bass. Magic.
Through the years Magnus has been
heard laying down the rhythm behind touring blues notables like
Big Jack Johnson, Rusty Zinn and Louisiana Red. Not limited
to handling the bass chores only he sometimes wields a regular
six-string on stage - and has also penned the lion's share of
The Blue Delivery's original material. [back]
