What is an interesting fun fact about you?

I started my piano career bashing the keys with the handle of a fly swatter, improvising music at age 4. Since then, I have refined my techniques slightly.


I was born in 1962 in the north of Sweden, all snowy winters, skiing, Northern lights, sauna and stuff. My dad played boogie-woogie and my mum played classical piano, so there You go – I couldn’t escape. From adoring Elvis and David Bowie at the age of 10, I discovered Genesis, and in high school, I and my friends formed a symphonic rock band. After 4 years of music school, learning classical music, I bought a Tascam Portastudio, got into recording and the rest is history.

I have been teaching music for many years and am now teaching music production. Alongside this, I am composing and recording for several international music libraries. I do all genres, but my forte is pianistic and orchestral music with lots of beauty and emotion!
