About PapaBlues

Who is PapaBlues

PapaBlues is a site run by myself, Anders Karlsson with the intention of showing some Swedish, an in particular Stockholm, Blues content. I've recently picked up an old hobby of mine, Photography, and combine that with a more recent interest, Blues Music, and this site will above all show photographs of Swedish Bluesbands taken by me.

So who takes takes the photographs?

So far, I've taken all the photos myself. If you have some good stuff you want published on this page, drop me a mail and I'll get right to it.

So who is this weird dude Anders Karlsson

I was born in 1960, and has been a true techie all my life. Among my interests is Blues music, photography, design and cars, in particular English. I've spent most of my life working with Relational Databases. I now work for MySQL AB. Nuff said.
