Sweden! Wow, what a great country for new upcoming music. Music which is so fresh, so eccentric and so varied. Stockholm and Goetburg- the places where its all happening. Sweden is really one of my top 3 destinations in the WORLD. (In case anyones wondering: Canada and Japan are the other two)
So! Sweden! I love you! I wanted to go visit back in September but ran out of fuuuunds. Someday, someday soon. As most of you know I was in the studio alone for the first time and it was pretty nerve-racking, much more so than I expected! The book I order didn't arrive either so I couldn't describe Sweden and its sites as much as I wanted to. But I want to do Sweden justice! I WILL do another show- not only because I want to describe the sites, but also because there's so many more brilliant songs and artists I didn't have time to play! Date to be announced! STAY TUNED!
Here's what everyone's waiting for so I'll just get right down to it!
