Hey all,

A little update from the road. I just spent 4 great days in Switzerland writing w DJ Antoine for his next album together w Mad Mark and Yannis. Antoine is a huge name on the European DJ scene with a string of hit songs like "Ma Cherie" and he is also a judge of the German Idol show. 4 exciting songs were created together and it was a great hang  

This week I also had another Nr 1 in Japan (my 11th total on the single/album charts combined), this time w the boyband Johnny's West. The mini album has sold around 80k so far during the first week and there's still a shot a gold record. The song "Party Maniacs" that I co-wrote is included on the album. Glad it finally found a home!  This week I also had two songs on the 1st mini album by the Korean band "Oh my Girl". Thx to my hard working publishers partners in Japan, Germany and Korea. More 2 come soon, now back to the studio :)

Have a great Sunday!

Hey,

Earlier in March I had my 10th Nr 1 in Japan (official single and album charts combined). A boy band with the interesting name "Sexy Zone" reached the top spot on the album chart and has sold more than 100,000 copies so far of the new album. 100k sold albums in Japan means another Gold record certification by RIAJ. I had the pleasure of writing one of the songs on the album together with Andreas Carlsson, Fredrik Hult and Steven Lee. We did this song at our camp in Costa Rica last year. The album also ended up as the 6th most sold album in the world that week on the Global album chart.

Also I recently had the pleasure of doing some gigs in Colorado with Frank Vignola and Vinnie Raniolo. We also did a short appearance on a local TV show in Aspen. Here comes our version of Limehouse Blues:

Enjoy!

This documentary is directed by Anders Moren & Björn Carlsson and features several famous players such as John Norum from Europe, Mattias IA Eklundh, Joije Wadenius and a few others. The movie will probably be avaliable sometime this spring/summer but for now here's a trailer:

Hey,

I'm happy to announce the new Christmas EP "Christmas Dream" by popular Swedish singer Andreas Weise.

I co-wrote all 4 songs together with Fredrik Hult and Dan Sundquist. The style is swing and American 50's music and on this album I play both guitar and piano + singing the background vocals together with the others.

I have two guitar solos, on "Holiday Honeymoon" and "Christmas Dream". Check it out and get into that Christmas spirit!

 
Regards Andreas
