BoA message - kpop

Hey,

Hoping all of you've had a great start of October. I'm looking forward until the 23rd when my latest co-write "Message" will be released in Japan.

The artist is BoA, also known as the queen of KPOP. It's a great honor to have a single released with such a legendary singer/performer.

This song actually features a lot of my acoustic guitar playing, both rhythm, fills and a solo. There is a preview on youtube so check it out!

Back from Blue Bay Festival, Ukraine

hey all,

Just got back from the Blue Bay Festival just by the black sea in Ukraine. I had a great time performing as one of the headliners together with the Ukranian band "Lush Life". there were a few really great acts performing at the festival and I was delighted to see my friend Bireli Lagrene again. He played an awesome show together with his band, I haven't seen him since we did a few shows together in paris 2009.

Also I was happy to meet Nikitas, one of the young students studying guitar with me online on this site. We got to talk a bit and play a few songs. Looking forward following this young man's progress.

I was also awarded with a guitar from the Ukranian builder AVAKS at a cermony on the main stage. Very unexpected but honoring to receive such a fine gift...

More pictures will be posted later.

regards andreas
