About Me


Started off back in the 80's, as a singer/bassplayer, with my first band EVOLUTION where we wrote our own material. A "no rules" fusion of Yngwie Malmsteen/Black Sabbath and all the other conteporary stuff of the eightees.
After Evolution came PARIS . A band influenced greatly by Ozzy/Bon Jovi/Ratt and all the other stuff that came out at this time. In this band i was the singer and sometimes i had to pick up the bass. We wrote our own songs.
Furher on in the in the late 80's and in the beginning of the 90's i formed the band 32go (THREE TO GO) with two other guys. We had an heavy U2 influence in our music. As time went we developed a more R.E.M type of sound. We wrote our own songs.
In the 90's i got involved in a COVERBAND project playing mainly 70's disco songs (sic!) for party people. Drunk and dressed in bellbottoms we delivered KC and the sunshine band, Rick James, the Gibson brothers.... What was i thinking? Allthough we had a blast!
From the 90's and on to now i also been playing my accoustic guitar and singing as an MUSICAL ENTERTAINER in bars/boats/weddings/cheesy dumps/television/radio/all over scandinavia. Mainly songs from the 60's, 70's, 80's.
After a while my longing to play real music lead me to form the band METALORGY with some other guys that also had an longing for the good old NWOBHM. We play covers from bands like Whitesnake, Dio, Van Halen etc. This was FUN! and gave me a taste for more... so the guitarist and me hooked up with some buddies from Eskilstuna and formed...
GRIFFEN and we play/write our own songs with our feets in hardrock and heavy metal. As you can see my circle i closed but my journey has just begun...
