Jefferson, the world´s oldest blues magazine
The world´s oldest still active blues magazine, Jefferson, came out May 1968 with its first issue. It is dedicated to music fans who love blues and related roots music, like rhythm & blues, soul, zydeco, cajun, gospel and folk music. Jefferson focus on the U.S. blues scene, but give plenty room of course to cover the Swedish blues scene, and the European and Scandinavian scenes.
The editorial staff don´t aim only for the already converted, but also want to reach out for those who haven´t yet discovered the enormous importance for the development of today´s pop and rock music.
The magazine run solid and well-written reports with unique interviews, covering artists, record producers, organizers and the like. Also travel reports and reviews of concerts, records and books. Our contributors lay down plenty work to deliver good photos and texts.
The magazine’s high quality pictures include those of Hans Ekestang and Erik Lindahl, both recipients of the “Keeping the Blues Alive Award” from the Blues Foundation. Jefferson itself is recipient of same award (2008), as is contributor Jonas Bernholm of Route 66 Records fame.
Jefferson is published quarterly by Swedish Blues Association. The size is near A4 format and usually 68 to 72 pages. Sometimes we enclose a booklet to cover some special issue.
