compilation nr. 1 in salescharts


In a couple of weeks its 10 years since my last gig with Frank & Rita Eriksen .

My last gig with them was in San Francisco , a fun trip and a nice way to round of our 6 years of working together.

Rca/Sony released a compliation of their best songs from the 4 albums released between 92 and 98 a couple of weeks ago, and this week it hit the nr. 1 spot on the official sales charts. ....
I play on 11 of the 17 songs

great little aniversary i think, Rita released a fine solo album last year but they have not released anything together since the 98 album

news mid march 09


Back from a week in studio, recording Reidar Larsens new album. 
I've cowritten 4 songs for the album, with Ingvar Hovland, Gunnar Roalkvam doing the lyrics. The basic tracks are finnished so now we have to add some horns , background vocals, percussion. Our buddy Norton Buffalo (norton-buffalo.com) will add harp . This will be Reidars 10. studio album and his first in Norwegian. Its recorded in the studio Pettersens kolonial in Hønefoss, a new studio with great rooms, Bechstein piano, a 59 Hammond b3 , protools and a great sounding SSL board.
the band was me on guitars, Kyrre Sætran on Bass, Knut hem on drums and cajon , and the man: Reidar Larsen on Keyboards

upcomming is recording more tracks for the new Svein Tang Wa album
