WELCOME TO MY CHANNEL.

Here you can watch videos
of me playing the guitar.

Mostly I play my own acoustic
compositions. I play electric
too but not so much, most of
it is electric blues. On a few
videos I also sing.

If you like what you see I
appreciate subscriptions and
friend invites. But if your
purpose is only to get high
numbers of subscriptions,
don't count on me.
If you want to spread
political propaganda there
are better places than here.
This is a music channel, I
respect all religions but
please don't use this channel
for it. And of course racism
or proracism is not accepted.




You can find me on Facebook too

ABOUT MY OWN PLAYING:

The last years I've been
composing a lot of acoustic
guitar tunes. I love it and
there are new ideas coming
constantly. Wish I had more
time for it, some songs get
lost because of lack of time.

During the 1990:s I had lots
of problems with hand and
finger injuries so that was
a dark period. Didn't play
very much those days. Now
I can practise a lot but I
have to be careful, my fingers
are often aching a bit.

The late 1980:s was a very
sucessful time. I performed
a lot at pubs clubs and
restaurants. I often joined
electric blues sessions at
pubs in Uppsala. I also played
blues and folkmusic in some
duos and trios. I took part
in many competitions but
never had any sucess with
my bluesy style of music.

For the future I hope to
make some money on my
guitarplaying. To work
40 hours a week as a teacher
takes a lot of energy.

I need more time and energy
for composing.

Thanks for reading.
