Rock'n Blues Corner: Trampled Under Foot at Norsia-Delta Blues Festival May 17 2013


Danielle rocked

Trampled Under Foot were awesome at Norsia-Delta Blues Festival at Hønefoss May 17th!

TUF won the Blues Foundation’s 24th International Blues Challenge (IBC) in Memphis in 2009 and they are a family band; Nick Schnebelen – guitars and vocals, Danielle Schnebelen – lead vocals and bass, and Kris Schnebelen on drums.

This time Danielle was in front most of the concert and had much more the lead vocals than before. She may have the best female voice in the blues today and it's still developing. Nick who won the prestigious Albert King Award as best guitarplayer at the IBC in 2009, is excellent at both vocals and guitar as never before.

I just love this band. TUF with Danielle, Nick and Kris are perhaps the most upcoming blues band in the world today. Check them out: Trampled Under Foot - homepage

Kris - A safe and steady drummer

Norsia-Delta Blues Festival is a small blues festival, and 2013 was the first year for the festival. A small but enthusiastic crowd gathered in front of the stage inside the blues tent when the talented siblings entered Friday night and blew us away.

I attended the festival Friday night only and returned home Saturday. I was lucky. Saturday afternoon a terrible rain storm tore the festival area partially apart and the concerts were cancelled or moved indoors.

Friday however was amazing. I'll be back for the entire festival next year.
