A P.A.W.S. Page 

Facts and Info - and some vintage snapshots!

Lineup for 2001:
Göran Svenningsson: guitars and vocals

Stefan Dafgård: vocals and harp

Magnus Lanshammar: bass

Daniel Winerö: drums
(deputizing for Erik Qvick - who in his turn replaced Jim Ingvarsson, featured in this page's pictures)

Leading this hardworking outfit is Göran:
A guitarist of great powers and with an excellent grasp of different blues styles. Check him out on stage with his beautiful fat jazz box Gibson, doing a brilliant rendition of Johnny "Guitar" Watson's "Hit the Highway". Or bringing the house down, playing violent slide on a hotrodded Strat.

The Instigators also periodically gig in Scandinavia as solid sidemen to U.S. guitarist Rusty Zinn (the gentleman in blue in the photo above).

The 2nd Instigators CD was called "Volume Two" (check that knob!) - and you can read all about it here!
Make an investment for the future: Try to get hold of their first CD "Rock'n'Bowl!" on Flex-A-Tone Records FLEX 101.

CD features 50's styled blues with a jumpin' horn section on several tracks, as well as some traditional Chicago blues
.

"The Instigators' "Rock 'n' Bowl" is the band's debut release, and with it they display the versatility that makes them such a consistently interesting and enjoyable musical experience. As might be expected, there are nods of some of their heroes--Muddy, Elmore, Magic Sam and others--but the majority of these songs are originals that cover the full spectrum of the blues rainbow."
