About Me

I was born and raised in Solna, Stockholm, Sweden. While growing up in Sweden I played soccer and ice hockey for Ulriksdal, Bagartorp, Solna and for the great AIK Stockholm soccer and hockey youth organization league. I also was in the school choir and in the church choir and took dance and acting classes in school as a child growing up. Sweden is a great place to live in and to grow up in. Sweden has many great places to see and to visit. I now live in New York on Long Island, USA. I graduated from Harborfields High School in 1981. I'am currently working with my great friends Ritchie Blackmore & Candice Night "Blackmore's Night Minstrel Band" as Ritchie Blackmore's guitar technician and Sound Technician. I also sang backup vocals on one song on the BMN "Village Lantern" CD and on one song on the BMN "Secret Voyage" CD. It was a dream come true for me to sing alittle on those CD's. Ritchie & Candice are the best for giving me the opportunity to contribute! I also have worked with Ritchie and have been great friends with Ritchie for over 25 years now. He is the most complete music artist I have ever met and a great friend. He plays so many instruments and produces and writes so much amazing music and is such a giving person and a kind friend. Ritchie & Candice together is the complete package!!!! Nice people and great music!!!! They are the greatest!!! I also have worked in the music business for many other bands and music artists as backline technician, sound technician, production assistant, personal assistant, local venue crew hand, music producer, band promoter and in the management field. I'am also an avid photographer, I love taking photo's and I also like filming with my camcorder. I also feel that I have been very blessed and been very fortunate to travel around the world on so many music tours so far and seen so many great places and have meet many great people and made many new friends over the years. I also enjoy carpentry work. Building and remodeling homes and offices. I have been doing fine carpentry work on and off since I was a teenager. I enjoy it very much and people say I'am a very good carpenter and do a nice job. Occasionally, I also tend bar and bartend and mixup all kinds of drinks and make funny jokes. I have been doing that part time also since the early 1980's, It's always alot of fun and enjoyable. In closing, If you really love great music, Checkout Blackmore's Night CD's and DVD's, The music speaks for itself! It's the greatest Ear Candy you will hear and you will love it! Don't miss out, Check it out! Also, Checkout Ian Robertson's website at www.oceanlinerrow.com & Jurgen Blackmore's website at www.jrblackmore.de for some great music! *See you all on the Blackmore's Night " Secret Voyage " World Tour 2009* ! It's the greatest live show!!!! Peace, Love and Cheers to all!!!!
