I am a traveling, solo musician (12-string acoustic guitar and vocal). My repertoire consists mostly of music from the 1960's & 1970's era. I've toured Scandinavia / Europe many times, released two CD's. Both feature a full band and have a "seasonal" theme ("Autumn" and "Summer").

Lyrics
"Psychedelic Dream" (Verse 1): Hey never mind sleeping with your mind inside your head You might as well skip it and throw the covers off the bed (Chorus): Meet me outside in a psychedelic dream and come to a place where things aren't what they seem (Bridge 1): We will never know what's going on there We might even see diamonds in your hair Heart shaped rainbows in the solar air We won't know and we won't care (Solo 1) (Bridge 2): Hurry up follow me now We will get there somehow Traveling through light and time to a place I know we'll find (Verse 2): Hey never mind sleeping with your thoughts inside your brain You might as well fly and no (know?) you're not insane (Repeat chorus) (Bridge 3): Psychedelic dream Where things aren't what they seem Who knows where we are? Who knows where we are? (Verse 3): Hey never mind waiting for the sandman to arrive We're drifting away and I know we will survive (Solo 2) (Repeat chorus) (Coda): Psychedelic dream......
