About Me

Peppermintville is NOT the name of a band but merely a little swedish/english wordgame that draws from the little candysweets that my hometown is most famous for. It's also what I decided to call the part of my house where my studio/workden is located. It's also my little way of creating a fantasyplace for where I find inspiration and joy. Jimmy Buffett has his Margueritaville and I have my Peppermintville!My maingame, besides my dayjob as a teacher of guitar and soundengineering, is that of a freelancing guitarplayer. I will list shows on this site with the various projects that I am involved with. I also write and record my own material, thus having the need for this space! Enjoy!
