This weekend, Oliver and I were back in Brussels at the beautiful venue Forest National, this time to see Michael Kiwanuka. He’s a British singer-songwriter that Oliver first recommended to me back in 2022 when he played at the Way Out West Festival in Gothenburg. His music is often described as ”a blend of folk,...

When Jason Isbell announced his ”An Intimate Evening with Jason Isbell”-tour, I knew this was a show I didn’t want to miss.

It’s just the first song, but the venue’s energy is already on top, mostly because... Continue Reading →
The exciting month of November 2024 continues. This time we packed our bags and headed to Copenhagen for the weekend to see Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. I was actually travelling by bus. It takes about 4,5 hours to go by bus from Gothenburg to Copenhagen, cheaper and more practical this time. Last time... Continue Reading →

Adele will perform only ten shows in Europe this year. All the shows will be played on the grounds of Messe München. It is an open-air setting created exclusively for these special shows. Apart from an entire stadium, with grandstands and a tailor-made stage (including a 220 meters wide and 20 meters high screen and... Continue Reading →
“Hello, London! It’s Saturday night!” That is how Bruce Springsteen chose to begin the last concert of this year’s European leg at Wembley Stadion in London. What followed for the next three hours was more or less what we’ve been used to see the E Street Band do this whole summer: the first part offering... Continue Reading →
