My name is Alfred Lorinius. I was born 1986 in Karlstad, Värmland, Sweden. I thought I could tell you something about myself and my musical life. At the age of four I started taking lessons on violin, using the Suzuki method. I’m grateful for that today, cause it taught me how to use my ear.
At the age of 13 I started writning rock songs and formed a band with two friends. I played the bass and sang. Later on two other friends joined and we played together like crazy. It was a great time in my life cause we didn’t know anything about our instruments or the music we tried to play. Every little thing was a huge discovery. Our intention was to play as many styles as we could and we really did. At the age of fifteen/sixteen, me and two of my bandmates started studying music at the upper secondary school in Karlstad, where we went for three years. Sadly enough our band broke up during that time, but these years we played together was a really interesting journey who gave me a lot of joy and experience.
After upper secondary school I wanted to dig deaper into jazz. I applied for a great school outside Linköping named Lunnevad and got in. The first year at Lunnevad I still played electric bass but the second year I also started playing double bass. The time at Lunnevad was very important for my musical and personal developement.
This year I’m studying at a school named Skurup in the very south of sweden and I’m having a great time!
Thank you for dropping by! Alfred
