Got a nylon string guitar at the age of 6. Banged around on it for a while, learned the obvious stuff and wrote my first whole tune at the age of 9. Had a break. When I was twelve I heard hard rock/metal guitars for the first time and loved it. Iron Maiden. I thought, that sounds like the fake chords I played on the nylon. (fake chords meaning, base - fifth - octave/power chords). So I started to learn songs. Iron Maiden, Europe, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai was the first artists/bands, in that order, that I learned. Solos was a blast. After a little while I started to listen to guitarists around Swedish TV and realising that the same guitarist was playing on basically all the hits. Rock, Metal, Pop and ballads. I want to do that. I want to be able to sit in wherever and do it well. So that's that. Been in numerous bands and with lots of artists for a long time, doing studio session work on the side. I got six kids, a cat and a wife. Most kids is using their wings but we got one 11 yo left at home.
