Writings & recordings:
Enjoy "King of the North here:
I wrote quite many songs during 70'ties and 80'ties, when touring both as a busker and with the folk-band "Grønne Fingre".
Later on, playing accordeon in "Zydecers" I didn't write that much, and after turning to jazz in the 90'ties I turned to composing instrumental.
Now in the 2020'ties it is again the acoustic style and songs inspired a.o. by my family and our house in Smaaland, Sweden.
