"Papa's Got A Brand New Bag"

Come here sister Papa's in the swing
He ain't too hip about that new breed babe
He ain't no drag Pap...

Biography

Growing up in rural Broenderslev, Denmark, Steffen Westmark (vocals/guitars), Søren V. Christensen (Hammond organ), Allan F. Villadsen, and Per M. Jorgenson (drums) were inspired by the classics -- Cream, Kinks, Pretty Things, Them -- and they used that hard R&B, primal rock influence to drive the revivalist sound of the Blue Van. The combo moved to Copenhagen in 2003 and scored gigs at rock festivals like ~Spot 9 and ~Roskilde. That exposure helped land them a deal, and a five-song EP was soon recorded in Hamburg, Germany.
