Bassist and composer
Project with Vindla String Quartet
This week I and We Float have had the pleasure to rehearse and explore new music together with Vindla String Quartet. I’ve written 8 new pieces that will be performed at Victoriateatern in Malmö November 29th!
Huge thanks to the Swedish Arts Grants Committee, Helge Ax:son Johnsson Stiftelse and Malmö Stad for making this possible! ❤️🙏
