about

"My relationship with Gösta Berlings Saga started with Håkan Persson (P3 ROCK) coming in to my room asking: “Have you heard this?”, handing me a copy of Detta Har Hänt. I inserted the CD in my player and that ruined my working day - from a working aspect. I was totally lost in the melodies, the arrangements, the sonorous sounds and the fact that it was instrumental. There was no voice telling me what the songs were about, so the music could tell me a story that became my very own.

That first “date” led to a gig at the Eurosonic Festival in Groningen (NL) in January 2010. It is a festival co-arranged by Europe’s public service radio stations. Every radio station brings a band from their own country and I immediately thought of Gösta Berlings Saga. They got a good slot at the legendary club Vera. The Swedish band with the awkward name didn’t attract a huge crowd at first but soon people started to fill the club. It was fantastic to see how people’s befuddled faces turned into pure delight as Gösta Berlings Saga won them over song by song. Towards the end of the show people just shouted for joy! I was so proud and so happy that I had been able to introduce Gösta Berlings Saga to some people who obviously became as enamoured as I did that first time we met, in my room at the radio."
