I've known Leif and Kjell for a long time and was allowed to work with them before mukken. Luckily, when the idea for mukken came up, the two of them called me and asked if I would like to be on board - and of course I was right away!

For me, mukken combines my two greatest passions: music and writing. Music has been with me my whole life, whether as a child in the choir and on the violin, later in cover and rock bands or later during my studies. During my studies I discovered my love for writing and became a journalist and copywriter. At mukken I have the best of both worlds.

There was no such thing as mukken before. As a musician, it was usually really not easy to find other musicians for a project, a band or simply to exchange ideas - if you didn't want to google for hours or click through confusing and outdated websites. With mukken, musicians have a place where they can exchange ideas about what they love and work together on projects.

They couldn't be more different (yes, I can't choose one). On the one hand I love pop punk and metalcore. On the other hand, I can listen to late 90's and early 2000's pop for hours (the good stuff, not the trash party stuff).

What probably all musicians say: I can't imagine life without music. Whether making music or listening to music, I just need it. When I'm not feeling well, music helps me, when I'm feeling well, I express it with music, and when I can't help myself with words and gestures, I write music. So, along with pens and laptop keyboards, it's my way of communicating and processing.

An acoustic guitar - can be rocking and loud, but also fit into the campfire romance drawer.

I am a copywriter with body and soul and have a text and word agency. When I'm not writing, you can usually find me behind books (real books, not a Kindle!), exercising, making music, or binge-watching series.
