“It’s hard to keep up the mood and inspiration in these times, but it helps to keep myself busy with taking on unfinished tasks and being flexible enough to jump onto new possibilities that may appear suddenly because of the situation changing all the time. The corona lockdown video for TUSK was an example of that. There has been many other concert like events, where I look upon streaming as an art platform rather than just broadcasting something that would be much better live. Live music is after all the best way to experience music, where everything is at stake, and that you are in the same room, sharing the same time and space, the NOW with your audience and fellow musicians. Nothing can beat that.”
