2010
I just finnished my brittish-influenced breakfest. Eggs, bacon… A bit too much coffe on top of that makes my hands a bit shaky. It is very cold now, around minus 15 (celsius) and the ice is thick on all the lakes around Gothenburg. Even the ocean is covered by a white lid in big areas…. Read more »

During the tour we had moments when the fishing was really slow. At one of the fishing trips, in the middle of a Norwegian night there were certainly… Read more »
The Heartache Shopping List
The summer tour´s endless drives gave birth to several important pieces of music. One of the most played themes of the tour was this Spanish/Balkan-influenced thing, which was played in a number of different versions. This one seems to be about what groceries we need to buy. I think it was recorded somewhere in Finland,… Read more »
About touring and being sick
Hi! I´ve been touring with several bands the last month, and had lots of fun. First I did a nice tour with a new band called Somethin´ Else. I went on to play a couple of gigs and record a new album in Stockholm with Jupiter & Jonas Kullhammar, and the recording went really well…. Read more »
Painting and cooking in Gbg
I have been painting a little bit; it was a while ago now! In the beginning it went really bad, and a destroyed paper after paper in furious anger. After a while, I started to get the hang of it. Will continue and see what will come. I uploaded some of the latest paintings. I… Read more »
