EARLIER
Of the many festivals I get to perform at throughout Europe and the US, I found the Visby Festival most inspiring! The location in the center of the beautiful Visby is truly breathtaking, and working with Annika and Thomas was pure joy, as they were terrific hosts and care about the soul of music, which is apparent in the many talented and insightful acts they book for this event. I would be thrilled to return to this festival any time in the future, and was honored to be a part of a gathering that reminds the human spirit why creativity and bringing musical color to this life is so important in this world. |
Stort tack för Visbyfestivalen! Det var så härligt att få vara med om den här helgen, det gjorde gott i både själen och hjärtat att få lyssna till och inspireras av så många begåvade artister med så många historier att berätta. Och att själv få sjunga och spela för en lyssnande publik – under det magnifika valnötsträdet på Fornsalens gård... magiskt! Fantastiskt ljud också! |
I play more than 200 events a year and for the past two years I have been involved, performing at the Visby Festival has been my favorite event. The well organized and welcoming gathering of international songwriters gives me a sense of community on an island that I miss when I'm not there. The Visby Festival has the potential to be the premier European songwriting festival and I hope it does as it would bring more musicians as well as more music fans to island. Its all too good be kept secret! |
