ALGESTEN

ALGESTEN

Tourné le 1 septembre 2017 • Vitabergsparken, Stockholm
Early meeting in this morning of first day of September. I meet Jakob alias Algesten, in town because he’s playing the same evening with Säkert! at Popaganda.

Originaly from Umeå, Algesten is recognized in the Nordic music scene and has been part of several bands, including Säkert! as her guitar player. That's how I discovered him.
So I was happy to meet him and discover his solo project. I love his 2 albums, the first in English released in 2016 and the second in Swedish released in 2017.

We are heading to Vitabergsparken in Södermalm, where Jakob performs 2 songs from his 2 albums.
A beautiful and calm atmosphere, drifted by his soft melodies.
