1.WHO I AM

Born and raised in Sparreholm in Sörmland, I began playing accordion and guitar. I then

focused on electric and double bass. I started taking lessons at the Flen music school, which

were then followed by the Music School in Norrköping. After the Music Platoon in Strängnäs

I moved to Malmö for studies at the Academy of Music in classical double bass. Then

followed studies in jazz improvisation at the School of Music in Stockholm. I have also taken

private lessons for Ferdinand Lipa in Gothenburg, Olli Kosonen in Helsinki, as well as Ray

Brown and Jeff Andrews from the US.

I have worked as a freelance musician, with Stockholm as the base, for the last 25 years.
