Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Today I've been playing with my christmas gift. The Korg Monotron. Really fun!

Hope you all had a great christmas and soon a great new years eve.

Rehearsal

Yesterday me, Judit and Marcus rehearsal some new songs from the upcoming EP. It's getting better.

Then we went to Idet and checked out some photos and arts. A very couzy event.

Today

Today it's time for an event at Idet. All people who works there will show their arts, photos etc. You are welcome to visit. Don't forget to check out Cecilia Johansson's (Photoinvivo) work a little bit extra and you will see both photos and video of Libra. Friday 17-23. See you there!

Before Friday

Today I helped Photoinvivo with things for the event on Friday. We discussed the photos and the video. You will see teasers of both. And of course other things that she have been working with. I will be there for a while during the evening. See you there!

Idet- konstnärskollektiv

At next Friday, 16 of December, there will be an event at Idet - Konstnärskollektiv at Ystadgatan 17 in Malmö. My photographer Cecilia Johansson will show her pictures and show a little bit of the new video for Libra´s "No more pressure" and the new press picture. The event will be between 17:00-23:00. Come and visit. Other people will show their paintings etc. Welcome!

Plans

For the moment I'm making plans for the upcoming EP. The release will be in January or February. So hold on... I just have to make a cover for it and the band need to rehearsal more for the release party. I will try to book Vinylbaren at the same date.

Today I will be working on a new web site.

Music video

Yestersay I went to Photoinvivo's studio and checked out the upcoming video for the new song "No more pressure". I guess it will be amazing. Not finished yet. It will be released with the EP in January or February. I will keep you updated.

Pepparkakor

Soon it´s christmas, then we need some Pepparkakor (Gingerbread). Yesterday me and my bassist Marcus did some cookies in different shapes like guitars, notes, donkeys, submarines etc. Really fun and good. Then we did some rehearsal as well, figure out what bass to play on "No more pressure". I think it will be awesome...

New song

Yesterday I continued with a new song. I really like Logic, it's a great program. I like that I finally can record song and instruments directly into the program. So I decided to also record my baby piano and my old recorder. The same recorder I've used in 3rd grade, also my sisters I think. Maybe my mum. I don't know how old it is. But it's made of wood, not plastic. Have you used your old recorder in a song? I don't think so. ;-)

Blog from iPhone

I'm just trying to blog from my iPhone. Works fine I think. I think I will change my blog a bit. Just so it's easy for me to blog from the phone. So you can get the latest news fast.

Tonight we're going to rehearsal again. Have to learn the new songs. But I don't know yet when Marcus and Judit will show up. I will try to remember to take some pictures. :)

Now I just have to figure out how to turn of the suggestions of words because my iPhone doesn't understand english. Annoying. ;-)

Happy 1advent!
