i wrote my first song in 2008 and since then i've played shows throughout Europe and in 2011 toured the US west coast. it's a journey and i'm meeting some great people.
i recently played a show in a forest where apparently there was a serial killer on the loose. that was crazy and intense.
what was the worst and why?
shows where the sound technician and promoter see you as an afterthought tend to be the worst kind of shows. on the other hand, if you take to the stage annoyed, it can be turn into a hot and feisty show!!!
what are your future plans?
later today i'll probably make a coffee
are you going for the big deal or are you more the d.i.y. type?
DIY and good collaborations. It's important to build a following of people who are interested in the music and the energy. And that can and must be done without becoming a 'brand' for some corporation. So for me it's about DIY and collaborating.
