I am Samuel, a Swedish guitar player living in Copenhagen, Denmark. I play music with hints of jazz, country, metal, noise and blooming cherry trees. When not doing concerts, recordings or compose music, I teach musical interplay and improvisation at various schools in Sweden. I’m also a proud receiver of the “Jazz in Sweden” award 2010.

“The idea of doing a full Christmas album has been floating around in the ABR camp for a few years now, but what always held us back was finding the time and energy to write an additional full-length in between touring and writing our regular records. After finishing Leveler I finally felt inspired enough to tackle the Christmas album idea.”
