Niels Nielsen, Sir George Martin and new exciting projects


It is almost 2 years since I started to write the songs that ended up on my latest CD “One man riot”. When I started out I did not know what kind of record I wanted to do. But I did know that I wanted to write highly personal songs and be open for whatever could happen during the process. To team up with producer and multi instrumentalist Niels Nielsen was the best thing I could’ve done. This extremely talented young man brought so much to the recording sessions and I like to think about the CD as a duo project. Without a doubt Niels is my very own Sir George Martin!

Even if “One man riot” still travels around the world on its on own resulting in new reviews and airplay every other day I’ve felt that writing/recording urge coming back lately.
I’ve got so many ideas and without a doubt there’s many CD’s in my mind waiting to be recorded. There’s thoughts about an acoustic solo CD (just me and my guitars), sooner or later I will make that rough band blues CD in the spirit of The Red Devils that I’ve dreamed about doing for so many years, Busty Blondes have some great new songs waiting to be recorded and I’ve got some REALLY (yeah, really!!!) wild projects that I’m discussing with great musicians that I would love to do BUT, as always, there’s not enough time. If I can find a way of giving up sleeping I might have a chance!

BUT, I’m very excited, and glad, to tell you all that Niels and I will enter the studio very soon to begin the work with a new recording that of course going to have number one priority. I’ve heard some of the music in head late at night but there’s no way to tell what would come out of this. I guess we all have to wait and see....

Check out Niels own projects while you wait:
