ANDERS OSBORNE “Up and coming” may have been a good way to describe guitarist,
singer and songwriter Anders Osborne earlier in his career, but his fame has now spread
beyond the borders of New Orleans, a city where he first cut his teeth and developed
a reputation for incendiary live shows. Born in Sweden in 1966, his father was a
professional drummer and a jazz fan whose early ’60s jazz combo played clubs
throughout Europe. At a young age, Osborne became fascinated with the singer/
songwriters of the 1960s and ’70s, but then traced those artists’ roots back to more
basic blues. He’s traveled the world but chose to settle in New Orleans where he has
been based since 1990. Osborne artfully blends blues, funk, soul and classic R&B to
create his own distinctive synthesis of styles.
