About Me


Whatch Out!! New CD under construction!!
Swedish Bassplayer, composer and bandleader.
I was born and grew up in Jonkoping Sweden and started my musical
career in the middle of the 70th´s. I have been playing and workin´
with a lot of artists and group constellations in different styles.
Today I am leader/composer of my own quartet Changes, and appeares in several groups in Sweden and Denmark.
Notices & Reviews
" His way to play on the bass is always the heartpoint of the music and it´s steady ground. He takes that position with authority and obvious presence. And when he speak out as soloist it´s allabout essentials; you will be excused from the standardized exhibition lines. "
" With his steady, clearly, sharply bassplaying and his excellent compositions served both to inspiration and a safe starting-point.
"Göran Schelin gets the lion´s share of the credit for this evening´s concert. Excellent music, exciting musicians and Göran himself is an amazing bassplayer."
"Göran is one of the best bassplayers in Sweden. His big acoustic instrument is handled with technical perfection, a tender touch and excellent pitch. His warm, gentle vibrating sound touches the heart directly."
