About Me

I live in Luleå, a town in the northern part of Sweden. I am a guitar player and singer, mainly into blues. My main band is Ramblin' Minds, a blues combo that's been around for twenty years now. We tour all over Sweden, sometimes we go to Finland and Norway as well.
Sometimes I join other bands and projects, just for the fun and challenge of it, perhaps I can also contribute i some way.
Besides being a blues musician, I also enjoy playing rock, american folk music and indie. I've reached the age of 48, married with two daughters.

This movie clip shows Terese Höggren and me performing "Send Me Someone to Love", backed by Svartöns All Stars featuring Thomas Johannesson, saxophone, Erik Lund, guitar, Joakim Nilsson, saxophone, Ubbe Nilsson, bass, Katarina Pettersson, drums and Björn Sjöö, keyboards.

Influences: The Swedish progg-musicians in the seventies were essential to me; they toured, they were skilled and available to us kids. So, instead of saying thanks to a lot of american musicians I'd like to say thank you to Bengan Blomgren, Kenny Håkansson, Coste Apetrea, Pygge and all the others and perhaps most of all to Pugh Rogefeldt and Magnus Lindberg. And to my first guitar hero, Kenta Wiklund who taught me the the magic of rock´n roll-strings! Hope I'll pass the audition!
Sounds Like: Myself, hopefully.....
