I am just me. Plain and simple. I have no band as it is now. I play most things on my songs by myself, except the bass parts which are beautifully added by the wonderful Per Sköld. I love the catchy Alanis-type stuff, and I'm at the very beginning of my songwriting - so I'm trying to find my own sound by listening alot to other songs and then trying to walk away from them again once I learn something new from them.
Band/artist history
I've been to various music schools and universities, so I learned alot there. I've listened and played music since I was a kid. I grew up listening to jazz records. In my teens my foremost influence was the great Paul Simon. I wanted to be him! Later on, I began recording cover songs, and became involved with a girl that I had a band with called The Harmony Babes. We played alot in little pubs and also in the streets. I learned alot from that. Now I'm here, and I am just beginning to get some stuff of my own together - hope you guys like it.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Sometimes, although I haven't done it in awhile. I've done alot of open-mike things in the past. Special moments are when you meet so many nice cool people out there who appreciate what you do.
Your musical influences
I am a big fan of women in music industry. I love Alanis for her vocal expression. I love the Indigo Girls for their fantastic way of weaving harmonies together. Another big favourite is Neil Finn. I like poppy, catchy good songs. Michelle Branch and Avril Lavigne are two new women in music that I like also.
What equipment do you use?
I use a few different guitars: Ovation Custom Legend, a black Les Paul Custom Plus and a Takamine 12-string. Other than that I use music software on the computer.
