Believin` in the good things
Through playing live I met Stina Andersdotter. She has icelandic and swedish roots and plays the bass. She is a fantastic musician. When I was thinking of this song, I thought she would like to play and bring her own ideas in it. She is inspired by the african music scene, which I adore. Manon I met through a session. She has so much groove in her playing and let my heart bump, when she is doing her thing. Her cuban style. I love her way of playing music. We are just 3 people, but coming all from different planets of music. Music is so open!
