In Tokyo
Mon, 05/23/2016 - 5:29pm
"Making the soundtrack of other peoples lives" has always been one of the goals of my songwriting. The other day at Tokyo Dome Arena, I felt that happening...SHINee performed 6 of my songs in front of 55 000 people, singing and dancing along to the music. The songs were: Breaking News, Wishful Thinking, Sweet Surprise, LookBook, Downtown Baby & Sing your song.This was a truly amazing experience that I won't forget and I feel very thankful for moments like this. Thx SHINee, SM Japan and SoundGraphics for an unforgetable evening!

Hey all,
Just finished a soundcheck in Salt Lake City together with Frank Vignola, Julian Lage, Nicki Parrott and a few other young talents and the Capitol Theatre. Doing one of my few selected live performaces this year together with Frank and his band. Looking forward to tonight's performance, it's gonna be alot of fun guitar music so stop by if u're anywhere nearby...such a beautiful venue!
Off to Japan tomorrow, gonna do writing sessions, meetings and attend a concert with SHINee in Tokyo Dome. This venue takes approx 55 000 people so it will be an amazing experience to hear my songs being played in front of so many people. I have written 9 songs for SHINee so far and 3 of them have been singles in Japan.
Regards Andreas
This weekend's events!

Hey,
Hoping u all have had a nice start of the new year! Once again a warm welcome to all the new students. My year started off nicely with 3 songs placed on the new SHINee album in Japan (Wishful Thinking, Sweet Surprise & Sing your Song) which did Nr 1 over there on the weekly chart. On the first two songs I also play quite a lot of guitar including jazzy solos :)
Currently I'm up in Aspen, Colorado doing a "GUITAR SUMMIT-Trio Concert " together with my friends Kruno Spisic and Ted Gottsegen. We'll be performing 2 shows tonight and tomorrow night. This is one of a few selected performances I will do this year, will be a lot of fun!
So check it out if u're nearby, it will be a mix of standards, django-songs and some of my own pop compositions.
Here's a quick interview the Aspen Times did with me over the phone the other day:

Christmas song in South Korea!
Sat, 12/05/2015 - 9:34am
Hey,
Very happy to have co-written the Christmas single "Dear Santa" for Girls' Generation-TTS (Taeyon, Tiffany & Seohyun), one of the most populat acts in South Korea.
They song is like a medley with many different parts and with a couple of jazzy chord progressions. It starts like a ballad and then goes into a faster tempo.
This song made an "all-kill" on the day of the release which means Nr1 placements on all the 8 real time/streaming charts in Korea. The mini-album "Dear Santa" also made it to Nr1 in 9 countries on itunes.
SM Entertainment released two versions of this song, in Korean and in English. Check it out!
