Ritz Goes Bock's

A night full of local music & local beer will take place on Friday May 29 at Ritz and the evening will continue to Vaasa's brand new Brewery and Pub; Bock's Corner Brewery. I'm proud to be a part of this great lineup. My buddy Erik Sjöholm will be joining me on guitar and we will be playing both at Ritz and at Bock's. The show starts at 19.00 at Ritz and the live music continues at Bock's around 23.00. Get your tickets at www.studioticket.fi

We had a great time when we got The Grace together for a private event at Ravintola Teatteri in Helsinki in April. Check out this exclusive footage from the gig here:

In other news, check out this truly cool weekly radio show called The International Americana Music Show. The host Michael Park has played two of my songs (Miss Golightly & New Orleans) on his show. The International Americana Music Show is a way of introducing Americana artists from all over the world to radio audiences across the United States. You can listen to it over at www.mixcloud.com

Hope to see you all at Ritz & Bock's on Friday!

Kuuntelussa: Rullaavaa americanaa

 

Viihde11.11.2013 7:47

Jerry Lindqvistin uutuudella bändi pääsee esiin. (Kuva: )

Pari vuotta sitten Jerry Lindqvist julkaisi komean Rivertown-levyn. Vahvasti perinnetietoista americanaa hengittänyt levy sai jatkoa lokukauussa, kun Lindqvist julkaisi The Grace-kokoonpanon kanssa Homegrown Soul -levyn.
Vaikka uusi levy eroaa melko selvästikin Rivertownista, perusasiat ovat tutut. Esimerkiksi Townes Van Zandtin ja Ryan Adamsin ystäviin Lindqvistinkin musiikin luulisi purevan.
Kantria ja americanaa sykkivä levy ei, kliseisesti ilmaistuna, kuulosta lainkaan suomalaiselta. Tämä ei ole ihme. Kun vaihtoehtokantrilla ei edelleenkään ole suuren suuria markkinoita Suomessa, pitää suunnata rohkeasti ulkomaille. Vaikka soittajat uudella levyllä ovatkin suomalaisia, on Lindqvist aiemmin tehnyt yhteistyötä muun muassa Paul Oxleyn kanssa.
Kuten levyn kannestakin käy ilmi, on Homegrown Soul edeltäjäänsä enemmän koko bändin voimin tehty...
