About Me

This is my solo space, for the songs I write that don't get played in my band, Little Failures.I live in Stockholm, Sweden, and have been writing songs since I was about 15 or so. 10 years ago, I formed the duo Little Failures with my best friend Lolita Ray.Lately I've been doing some solo performances, and I really enjoy it. My motto is "Do one scary thing every day", and that is really true about playing solo... but it's also very rewarding.
