Have been working heavily on new works this past few months (will post selection of them here in the coming weeks) & I should be ready for a new exhibition sooner than later.
Also I have been working on new songs with Mr. Silla (a new band that I am a member of) and we have started to record them in the studio for our debut album.
JANUARY 2011
Last year have been very busy. I have been touring with Seabear almost all through the year both in the US and Europe. Now we are in a small break before we start to write new material for a new album that hopefully will be released in the beginning of 2012.
This year I will be more focused on my art though and I am looking on having a exhibition in the coming months. Also me & friends have started a new music project that has members of múm, Kimono & Amiina on board. So this year will be different but probably be as busy? Nice.
NEW YEAR 2010
