FAQ
(frequently asked questions)
I love interact with all of you and I highly appreciate your support. Below you can find some questions and requests that I get quite often from people, thus I decided to make this page as a reference point. I.e. rather than answering the same question over and over, I can refer to this page. Secondly it will also function as a place where you can find out more about me.

Where can I get your music?
All of my music is available on digital platforms and websites such as: iTunes, Amazon music, Spotify etc. If you want a physical copy (CD) of my solo album "Silhouettes" you can purchase it through my website (send me a mail) or through CDBaby.com
Are you available for session work? Could you do a solo on my song?
I enjoy collaborating with other musicians and I would be happy to discuss working with you on your project. Please bare in mind that I need to be compensated for the time and effort I put in to make the best work I can for your project. Recording and preparation takes time and I have reached a point in my musical career where time is money, thus I will not play for free. Contact me for more details.
How do I get endorsed by ---? Can you help me get an endorsement?
This is a question I get a lot. I can not help you get an endorsement by one of the companies I work with. Asking for that is asking me to put my trust with the people and companies I work with at risk. I don't know you that well. You need to be your own boss and manager and speak for yourself.
Remember that endorsements is NOT about you getting free stuff to get your ego boosted. You need to be able to offer the companies something in return in order to get a discounted price (that is usually what an artist endorsement means). It's all about exposure. Unless you play in a world famous band with big tours on a regular basis, you probably won't get free gear. In other words: there has to be some sort of mutual benefit for both parts (you and the company) in order for an endorsement to take place. Nobody gives you things just to be nice...
Why do you play fretless guitar?
Simple answer: why not? It's a means of expression that is not possible on a regular fretted guitar. The fretless guitar opens up for so much freedom. Try one for yourself and you'll see what I mean. :)
Can you check out my band/my music on ----
I love listening to music and find out about new great talents. But there aren't enough hours in a day for me to reply to all requests I get. Once again, time is my enemy and I need prioritize the hours that I have to juggle with. Checking out all requests I get on Facebook, e-mail, YouTube etc is impossible to make into one of my main priorities. Simply not enough time... sorry.
