Sessions time again and today it’s the turn of Andreas Moe, a
Swedish singer/songwriter based in Stockholm.
We caught up with him at Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem (special
thanks to those guys for hosting us) in Nottingham ahead of his support gig
with Lewis Watson
Andreas started his musical journey at age 12. It was not about
choruses and melodies then, it was all about being able to play all those cool
rock solos that Eddie Van Halen, Richie Black Moore and Yngwie Malmsteen
played.
It was not long until Andreas started his first band that the
songwriting began. At 15 Andreas started studying at a music school in
Stockholm where his main instrument was guitar, but after two years he began to
become more and more interested in singing and concentrating on an artist and
songwriting career.
At 22, after having practiced the guitar like a fool since he
was 12, played at almost every club in Stockholm, played session guitar in
Sweden and being chased by all the major labels and publishing companies in
Sweden, he decided to sign to the UK independent Phrased Differently.
We'd like to wish Andreas good luck, it's a name we think you'll be hearing a lot more often in the future.
