I`m a man with my stik in my hands.
I got my first drum in 1962 and I was one of 4 who started " The Shadder Hands" and we had ouer derby at the house of rock that time i Copenhagen " Hit House " it was the 25 jan. 1965.
Just after the derby we got a lead songer Jan Rothoff and we got a record contract at " TEENER" and we made ouer
first record in August 1966 . The lead songer Jan Rotthoff stop just after and the band keep going as the start.
Then the band made a record nr.2 , with the band who started it. This record was not onely pressent in Denmark , but inJapan too. And the record been made in Dec. 1966
We couden stop, so we made record number 3 . from 1967 .
On this record we real dit`n nove who we where , so we got 2 new members Torben Bank "ell bass" & Steen Georg Bech "lead vocal" who cames from "Money Makers" and then something happen again, so record number 4 was with a other image, but not so fare anyway from start , from indian to Danish flipp 1968 .I stop in the band in late 1969, after we had play as a warmup band for Ten Years After and Pretty Things.
Then I was going to the army and after that I wend to Sweeden and make famely and I was playing with the band " WYNN`s " where the music was pograsiv Sweedish rock. In 1972 the hole famely wend back to Denmark and I started with Rivers I made my first demo with my ohne songs and music, it was toogether with Pia Melnyck who sing some of my songs alone. Rivers has been make at record with " Rickey Dane " Denmarks Elvis in 1978. Rivers stoped 1979 and I started playing Trad Jazz and all other kinds of Jazz.
1980 I started " Frihedens Swing Band "(Freedom Swing Band) together with Holden Fogh on Bass. Holden Fogh and I became as so good freinds, that we become playing together for many years , in a lot of jazzband and we are still best freinds. Frihedens Swing Band was playing together for about 8 years.
Then Holden and I started with Jesper Kock on sax,clainet and vocal , the band " Swing Syndicate ".
Swing Syndicate been offered to play for the Danish best Blues singer " Madam Butterfly " Pernille Oschlag on her record. Swing Syndicate had a 2 years ture with Madam Butterfly,
In 1990 Swing Syndicate made there first ohne records " Swing Syndicate "and the follow up records cames later same year " In NY ".
Sideway playing with Swing Syndicate, Holden Fogh and I played with the Trad Jazz Band " Finn Clausen`s New Orleans Jazz Band ".
Sins 1980 I always have had Holden Fogh on bass, but in 1992 I begin to play with Pee Dee Jazzband without Holden.
My first concert with Pee Dee was in Skagen, where we made the first promotion cd.
Pee Dee become a very populary band, all over the world. But even that I play with Pee Dee I got time to play with my old freinds Jesper Kock and in 1993 we made " Kong Hans Kongelige Hof Kapel " a Big Band, who played 20`s Bigband Jazz.
In 1994 Pee Dee was travling alot more then usely and we made 3 records that year.
We played with Jacques Gauthe in Cork Irland and we been Honorary Citizen in New Orleans, I played with Pee Dee
to 1996, and end with a concert i Cork Irland.
After that, I have worked write on my one song and music and have worked as stand in, in a lot of bands.
Now in the year of 2008, I`m looking for a band where I can let my music come alive and some special artist who
wish to try to work with my stoff.
