The annual concert at Valbo kyrka

Nice to be back at St. Görans church! 

Last time we played here I think was in 2011. Nice to be back! The surroundings are really pretty. We tried some new songs for this summer's tour, and I thnk they turned out well.

Second gig at Gotland. this one more focused around Curt and his blues, but with the same people as yesterday. Just as fun!

I went with Rev Curt ot Gotland for two gigs. I was supposed to be just the trio, but it turned out something much bigger. Got to play with a lot of new people, most notably singer Kiralina Salandy. We did a version of Amazing grace that I'll never forget!

Believe it or not, but at this concert I actually sang a few songs! And so did Thomas. It's nice, brings another dimension to the trio. 

It gets wild at Stampen! In those situations it's nice to have a band leader that support you.

Claes Janson always fills the house! It's amazing. Today was no exception, at Folkets hus in Norrtälje.

Summer concerts at Glenn Miller Café - joy!

The almost annual gig at Hjorthagen jazzklubb. The black and white do emphasize the retro style of this venue.

First time playing at Skottvångs gruva, though I've heard a lot about it. I think it's interesting with places that have been transformed from old time industrial sites and similar to cultural venues. This used to be a mine.

On the way to this gig we heard on the radio about the terrorist deed in Stockholm, where a truck had run down people on Drottninggatan. A sad day for everyone, this night we played for peace and love.

Everytime at Hedemora Blues Jam is a real party! Saturday afternoon, the place is packed and people are happy. Also, since the concert ends so early there tiem for some nice hang out afterwards.

Nice to be back at Mornington with Trinity! Great place to play in Stockholm.

Last show at Dramaten! I'm going to miss coming here. The hours before a show are almost the best part. 

Nice restaurant and an enthusiastic audience. Seems like the BB King tribute is a good concept!

I've played in Jönköping quite a lot over the years, but not with Arnesen Bluesband. Think this actually was the first time. Nice also to see the new concert hall. 

As always, a lot of fun playing with the blues band. The picture is from my solo on "Confessin' the blues". 

Some solo organ entertainment at Danderyds kulturskola.

Went with Dramaten to Stora teatern in Gothenburg for two shows. I think the second one was one of the best so far! And the theatre was really nice.

A smaller, more intimate gig at Hijazz Klubb in my hometown Uppsala. We filmed the concert. Here's one of the songs, Midnight Cruiser. 

First gig in Sweden with this my trio after the record release! Nice, cosy place to play. We also did a clinic for the conservatory students earlier in the day.

Although Tyresö is located a bit south of Stockholm, this concert was a part of the Stockholm jazz festival.

Last concert of the Västmanland tour was in Arboga. The elevator broke just before we were about to put the B3 in. The stairs were steep, but wide, so it was ok.
