Melodic Travel is my second official album (released 15th December, 2006) distributed by the Lion Music label.

Melodic Travel booklet - front This was first meant to be a folk/jazz-inspired trip to the heart of Swedish traditional music. But then I changed my mind and started to explore various sidetracks and musical solutions. The final result was a lot of different alternatives and in the search for the melodic treasures new discoveries were made.
