Sounds Like: BIRGER LÖFMAN!!! Everything I like to listen to of course is registered in the musical part of my brain and some of it comes out in my own playing, singing and writing. WHAT comes out depends on the style of music and situation I´m working in, and whatever creative mood I´m in at that moment.
