The Norwegian Prince of Soul

Me and Andy met the Norwegian soul king Bernhoft for an interview at Fasching, Stockholm, backstage some hours before his performance.

I've listened to his music for some time, but this was the first time I saw him live on stage - he blew me away! All alone he pulled of a concert like he was supported by a big band, see an example how he does it here.

My friend Camila took some lovely pictures of his performance. The venue was packed - sold out - and Bernhoft was really charming.

Our Photographer, Camila, was a Bernhoft newbie and hadn't had a chance to research him on YouTube before the event. After his first song she turned to me, wide eyed and open mouthed and asked 'What just happened?' From our interview, published on scandinaviansoul.com.

Scandinaviansoul.com were the only ones who signed up for an interview and I can not understand why! No matter what genre he's representing, Bernhoft is proof of pure talent and that should be written about. 

For those who haven't seen Bernhoft live yet I really hope you will. He is an extraordinary and funny person, on stage as well as backstage. 

One of my favorite tracks is "Come Around" :) I'd like to dance all night!!! 

Photoblocks at The Swedish Museum Of Photography

My Photoblock will soon be found in the museum shop of Fotografiska - The Swedish Museum Of Photography.

That is just awesome! I love the museum and their shop!!! I've got so many postcards from there with great great prints. Some of my favorite exhibitions at Fotografiska so far have been Sally Mann, Robert Mapplethorpe and Helmut Newton. 

Now I really look forward to see "Genesis" by Sebastião Salgado. 

Keep an eye open for my Photoblocks - handmade by Sandy Stadelmann :) 

Stockholm Music And Arts

Time for Stockholm Music & Arts with WiMP! One of few festivals in Stockholm city center, with only one stage which makes it really relaxed as no one gets stressed about missing out on anything. WiMP build up a tent next to the stage and enjoyed three good days with awesome weather!!!

Felizia gets prepared.

The Magic Numbers were one of my favorite performances :) Their music made the prefect soundtrack to the beautiful sunny surroundings of Stockholm. 

Our photo wall! With the hash-tag #wimpmusic all pictures were printed and could be picked up in our tent. Lovely memories!

Goat looked smashing! My new style haha!

Interviewing The Magic Numbers! A video will be up soon on WiMP Magazine.

I thought the festival offered really great food. I'm so tired of fast food! Give me this!

Summarized I'd say my favorite concerts were: The Magic Numbers and Neil Young :) Especially after have met The Magic Numbers... They are so cool and nice. Neil Young was doing "Rockin' In The Free World" for 10 min... legends get to just do anything. It was a great weekend with WiMP, friends and good music. Keep on rockin' I guess!!
