Band/artist history
Started playin the piano at 9. At 16 I swopped to the Guitar. Got into the Blues. Nowadays I have taken up the piano again.
Your musical influences
English guitarist Sam Mitchell was the one who got me into the Blues. He lived in Copenhagen for many years and I saw him play many times and talked to him too about music and life in general. Other influences are the beatles wich was the first band I listened to as a kid. But later its been blues artists like Jimmy Gordon, Lurrie Bell, Albert Collins, Albert King, B.B. King and so on. Old school Blues. Slow Blues is my favorite. But also older forms of Blues from the 30's Bob Dylan and JJ Cale are big inspirations.
Anything else?
Moved to a house in the country in Sweden 2016. From here I do all my recordings in my home studio.
