Album cover- MoMoTop


Jag har gjort omslaget till jazztrion MoMoTop's senaste album, Slipen Sessions. En jättefin samling låtar som grabbarna skrev under en veckas digital detox vid Slipstenssjön "Slipen" i Västerbottens inland. Som de skriver i albumtexten:        "Tillfälligt befriade från det dagliga informationsflödet och vardagens konstanta brus gavs möjlighet att ostört musicera tillsammans, utan tankar på mening eller mål. Inspirerade av skogspromenader, småkryp, sommarvärme, tranor och tystnad ägnade sig trion åt lekfullt skapande...".
Skivan finns att lyssna på och köpa här.

 This was a picture that I think was very fun to do, because Mats and I worked out the design together. Another nice thing is that Mats, Måns Allroth and Robert Henriksson, will play on my exhibition, at Gallery 39, May 24!

Dave Brubeck

Dave Brubeck
illustration for Orkesterjournalen #1 2013.
The jazz pianist and composer Dave Bruebeck died in december last year, at 92, and I made this portrait for an article about him in the latest issue of Orkesterjournalen.


I got the disc Time Out, from a friend from school and I've liked it ever since I listened to it the first time. Above all, the beautiful composition "Strange Meadowlark", which starts with a long piece of solo piano.

So it was sad to hear of Dave Brubeck's death in december last year. But I thought it might be nice to do some kind of tribute to him, in picture form. It all resulted in a picture that is now published with an article in Orkesterjournalen # 1 2013



The picture on the front of Time Out is painted by S.Neil Fujita (who made ​​many album covers, including Charles Mingus' Mingus Ah Um ") and I painted a part of the painting, as a background for the illustration.

Another disc with the Dave Brubeck quartet that I can recommend, is Jazz Impressions of Japan:
