Phew, it has been some buzy days, so I haven’t had much time to write. Anyway – one of the things, I’ve been doing is rehearsing with a small band, who are going to play some concerts with me in december. It will be a band that will accompany me on tour in 2010 also. Yey!
Two of the people have already been playing a role on the EP, and also here on the blog: Jakob Brixen and Nikolaj Paakjaer. The third person is a highly skilled girl, who have accompanied me before, namely Christel Voldby Winther. I’m thrilled about what they have been capable of doing for the songs.
So, on Sunday, we played at a great venue in Copenhagen, called Huset i Magstraede. We had one of the best soundengineers I’ve ever met – the sound was great. Any musician knows how important this is. The audience was one of the most exited assembly, I have played for. Three encores and intense listening. It’s a gift to play for such an audience.
It was a good experience to play the songs with a band. Until now, I have been on my own, apart from the shows I did with Christel in spring 2008 and a couple of guest-apps. We haven’t have time to really get the songs under our skin, but I figure, that when we’ve played more concerts together, it will be truly fantastic!
Come to Aarhus next Friday (the 4th of December) and listen, if you’re in the neighbourhood. My dear friend, Mikael of Munich and In a city by the sea will play a couple of songs before our show. Mikael is truly one of the most talented songwriters in Denmark right now.
With love
