House of Blues

Goodmornin !!
Time for a little update.
A few weeks a go, I was picked out among 14 other artists from school, to perform at Musicians institute Holiday Party, at The House of Blues. And oh my, it was sooo much fun !!  A whole night filled with live music, great food, amazing friends and a ton of love.. That´s pretty much all you need.
And that I got the oppertunity to perform my own music on the same stage as UB40, Slash, Ozzy Osbourne, Stone Temple Pilots and Miley Cyrus has performed on, among many others... Is such a huge honor and I´m so so so crazy grateful ! Something I will always remember.
Same night I also did background for my talented roomie Anni Kannika. So it was an awesome and perfect night.

Here´s the Video from when I´m performing Duffys "Mercy" and then some pictures from the evening <3
Love Love

Ohh, Must be the worst blogger ever right now...:/ Sorry, sorry, i will get better! 

Well, these last months has been crazy, a very good crazy though !
Has been A lot of performances, both inside and outside of school. Writing new songs, photoshoots, studio recording, video recordings and rehearsals, rehearsals - I couldn´t love this life more.
But one of the biggest moments was when I got the chanse to perform with my amazing band on the big stage at House of Blues, at Mi´s Holiday Party :D
Did one of my original songs and then one cover. And It was a moment of pure happiness right there :) Daaamn, it was fun ! :D
Video and pictures from that will be uploaded very soon :)

Right now we have a little break from school, so I´ve done some recordings together with my amazingly talented roomie Anni Kannika, Youtube video with Tildzzor, who´s back in town for a lil bit! :D, celebrated christmas with my lovely LA family, and then took some time to just relax for a bit.

Right now, we are on our way for a little roadtrip, breathe some freash air, so we´ll see where we end up :)

Until the House of Blues and the rest of the live videos are done, I would like to share mine and Tildas little cover tune we did two days ago. So here we are, Believing. Hope you like it, please share if you do !

Have an awesome day and spred some love  <3


Back in business

I´m baaack !
Puuhh, It has been some intense weeks. Aaalll good fun though, wouldn´t wanna change it for anything.
We have been moving to a new place here in Hollywood, so instead of just me and Bastian, it´s now us two plus Anni and Brandon, sharing a 2 bedroom apt, and I looovvve it and I love the new place. Felt like home the second we walked in here. And to have the three best roomies you can imagine - just makes it a little bit better.

I´ve had rehearsals every day for different performances, been in the studio recording new things, music video shoot, outgoings and then shows outside of that. Completely happiness.


Yesterday I got called in to sing with Dirty Minds at their release party at Hard Rock Café here in Hollywood - the same night, haha. But of course I couldn´t say no to that !
Went great and it was so much fun - as always with these aaawesome guys ! You are rockiing !!

Tonight I´m having my own show at Loews Hotel. Been playing there every friday for the last three weeks now, and I love it !
On this thing I´m just doing an acoustic setting with different setups, and backing me up today on keys and percussion, are my super duper awesome Oliver and Dave.

So now it´s time to put on the stage face, off to rehearsal and then showtime !

Here´s a few Pictures from some of the latest shows

What a knockout

First week of school is done, and it feels grreeeaaat to have swith the program from vocals, to "Independent Artist". Really inspiring I must say. More focus on me as an artist and my own career, a lot of time in the studio, music business classes and more more fun stuff. I´m exited ! :D


Yesterday me and Arazo went to an Event at Fredrick´s of Hollywood - a sexyy underwear store here in Hollywood, that I was invited to. We took funny pictures, had some drinks, met new cool people and went home with some cute goodiebags. 
After that we went to Mauis to watch some friends perform. Perfect fun night, with perfect friends.

Now I´m soon off to rehearsal, and after that off to Loews to watch some other friends play, and book some own gigs.

Happy Friday people !

Stage is home

Two weeks of no school, at least no classes, is now over. Had a great two weeks break !
It has been a lot of rehearsals, gigs, writing new stuff, lazy days by the beach, partying and spending time with good friends.

I also started my internship last week, at a PR agency in Downtown- Solid Gold. Everything goes well so far, and I can NOT complain that i´m now invited to several of different live shows every week around here in LA, when their clients are playing. So I guess it´s time to really discover and listen to some new good bands and music :D

This Saturday I had 2 different gigs here in Hollywood. First I played with my cover band Kiss´n Tell, at Pig ´n Whistle, and as soon as I was finished there I had to run over to Mauis, to sing with Milo and Dirty Minds.
Soo much fun !!! :D



                                                              Kiss´n Tell !


                                                Me and the rocking Dirty Minds


                                          Cheers with Arazo Bastian and Malin


                            Not much, just Bastian Me and Malin chilling in the sand

This thursday, I went with some friends to see and listen to The band "Vintage Trouble" And Hooolyy, they are good!! Soul/Rockish, just the kind of groove I love !!! Had a really great night, and once againg we all danced til the feet died ! Good times with good friends .

Yesterday I had rehearsal for a upcoming gig, worked on some new material and then ended the evening with movie night ala Bastian.

Right now I´m on my way to a ranch a little bit outside of LA. A friend of mine invited me to F Gary Grays place for a little day party, so will be fun to check that out, never been to a ranch here :)

Sooo... First it was the final of the showcase, where I did backgrounds for Alies. She didn´t won, but damn she killed it, and we had a bless on the stage!
Then it´s been graduation, not for me though, I still have 6 months left, but for a lot of my friends ! A beautiful day, with ceremony- where the legendary Herbie Hancock was the guest speaker- then we went out for dinner a group of friends and then we went to the club writers room, to celebrate - haven´t had that much fun in a long time, everybody danced til their feet died !!! :D

The day after, Me, Bastian and Kevin went to shoot Sean Kingstone´s new music video. It was located on the top top of the hills - Beautifuuuul!! We were there the whole day, and it was sooooo hot, ridiculously hot!
I was sweating like a I-dont-know-what, but still you had to dance around with high energy, sexy as you can be, and all covered in glitter confetti that they throw out, hahah, but it was so much fun :D

Directly after that I got picked up to go and see Roxette, live at The Gibson Amphitheater, that my dear friend Ji had invited me too. Thank you againg, I had a blessed! :D I turned 8 years old again, and was back in my child room, dancing and singing in front of the mirror, to all Roxette´s hits! Haha, so much fun :D

Now we have a little break from school, but still it´s a full schedule - fun things though .
