The Rude Grooves (EST)

The Rude Grooves on Eesti-Austraalia blues-rock’i trio. Suurimateks eeskujudeks on Jimi Hendrix, Cream, The Bluesbreakers jpt.
Ansambel moodustati 2011. a. jaanuaris.
Kitarrist ja laulja, Kristjan Pärkson (23), ning trummar, Aimar Sepp (28), on varem mänginud erinevates rock projektides. Basskitarrist, Mike Both (38), on bluusiga tegelenud 20 aastat, kodumaal – Austraalias.

2010. a sügisel otsustasid Kristjan ja Aimar kaua plaanis olnud bluusitrio kokku panna, kuid komistuskiviks sai basskitarristi leidmine. Peale pikka tulemusteta otsimist leidsid nad jaanuaris Austraaliast pärit, Eesti juurtega Mike-i ja The Rude Grooves oligi sündinud.

The Rude Grooves are a Tallinn-based blues-rock power trio, playing covers from Cream, The Bluesbreakers, Hendrix and more, as well as their own original material.

The band formed in January of 2011. Singer/guitarist Kristjan Parkson (23 / Estonia) and drummer Aimar Sepp (28 / Estonia), after playing together in various rock projects for several years, decided to put together a blues / rock trio. After a long search, bass player Mike Both (38 / Australia + Estonian roots) joined the duo. His 20+ years of blues experience, blended with Aimar’s bombastic drumming, creates a muscular backing for Kristjan’s passionate vocals and ferocious guitar playing.

The band has steadily been building a following in Tallinn, and has met with a positive reception from Estonian media, Estonian musicians and live music fans.
