About Me

Header Banner Made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own!Born 1972 in Bergen Norway. Started playing bass in the mid 80..s.After a few years of playing, a growing interest in jazz started. In 89 after beeing introduced to the music of Jaco Pastorius (R.I.P.) I picked up my first fretless bass and has played just about any style that has crossed his path since then. For the most part I play 6 string fretless electric basses as well as fretted ones. I also play double bass every time I can get my hands on one.... Always looking for new challenges. Even though currently living in Bergen, Norway, More than willing to relocate for the right band or project. Please give a shout out in case you need a bassist eighter in studio or live. P.S. Willing to tour. Styles preferred: jazz,fusion,singer/songwriter,R&B,soul. New music will be posted as soon as possible. Currently working with a few different projects, such as a acoustic duo/trio with Magnar Pettersen and of course writing material for a solo debut....In Addition to this I am working as a "on call" bassplayer for a few bands, studios and local venues in my hometown... Best wishes to you all. Keep playing and enjoy music.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
