Since their start in 2000, annoyingly good-looking Swedish power trio DUCKS CAN GROOVE have recorded three Hendrix tribute-albums and and five albums with original music (Different Frogs Different Times 2009, This Is Typical 2010, Crankable Grooves 2012, Boom And Bust 2013 and Bronze Age Artisans 2014) Hailed for their unique brand of eccentric power-trio rockfusion retro funk, the group is also considered as being one of the best Hendrix tribute acts you could ever catch.
"CRANKABLE GROOVES" by Swedish DUCKS CAN GROOVE, released on Biba Records, June 2012, official silver disc US Grooveyard Records october 2012. This is the groups third album of exclusively original material, penned by guitarist Stefan Edfeldt. The solid foundation of drummer Erik Edlund and bass player Göran Backlund is augmented at times by vocalists Helena Hillerbo and Olle Söderlind, plus DJ Gustav Lindqvist scratching. The music is best described as a blend between raw psychedelic blues-mania and innovative modern beats. Feedback, drumsticks and remote controls are some of the tools leader and guitarist Stefan Edfeldt uses to create his unique percussive sound.
Stefan has through jams and shows around New York City and L.A, been given the "stamp of approval" by former Hendrix bandmates and musician friends.
Highlights are shows with Buddy Miles, Leon Hendrix, Larry Coryell, Randy Hansen and Jack Casady.
The Ducks have a standing invitation as the sole European band to play one of the biggest annual Hendrix tribute events in North America. The most recent show in November of 2012 in N.Y.C. included Vernon Reid, Larry Coryell, Randy Hansen and Leon Hendrix among others. Ducks Can Groove brought the audience to standing ovations with their blend of Hendrix-covers and original material.

"Imagine if Jimi Hendrix had survived into the 21st century and gotten into yoga and meditation. Moreover, imagine if he started experimenting with Groove/beat'n jazz in a contemporary and sensual way. Put all that together, and quite a bit more, and you would get a hint of what Ducks Can Groove is unleashing on their new CD "Crankable Grooves" Stefan Edfeldt's Hendrix-soaked guitar leads the way through experimental sonic landscapes that capture the imagination, serving to at once calm the nerves and titillate the soul. A must listen for those interested in 70s guitar virtuoso music mixed with progressive, thought-provoking blues riffs. Un-freakin-believable!! "- Steven Rosen, author, May 2012
"Individually they are highly skilled musicians and, collectively, they are a force to be reckoned with." - Experience Hendrix (official Jimi Hendrix fanzine)
Only a total retard would not love this new recording from DCG . . . from the first note to the last, it says "quality music: unique melodies, fresh improvisations and new and refreshing twists and turns based on the Hendrix legacy."
Starting with the first track we get originality from DCG, not just compliments to Jimi. The "bingo game" melody is played in a humorous, avant-garde fashion and is definitely something not to be missed. Also, the big guitar sound is always there, complete with over toning harmonics and long sustained notes. One would have to be a brainless Neanderthal from the other side of Uranus circa -2000 BC to not think this is not just a good record, but a great one!!!! More power to Ducks Can Groove--they may be ducks--Swedish ones at that, but man, can they throw down a nasty, ebullient groove!!!! Music lovers, enjoy.
- Larry Coryell May 2012
"This band is a real jazz and blues outfit that Jimi himself would have loved to jam with and always does justice to the Hendrix catalogue. Lead guitarist Stefan Edfeldt's Hendrix drenched solos lean toward the direction Hendrix was headed in 1970 with a funky jazz fusion as exemplified in their last two CD's of original material.
