I started out, playing American Folk with my neighbor/friend Anders and my brother Johan. We played Kingston Trio covers mainly, and did some shows at the "student nations" in Uppsala. This was '94-'96, so Anders and I were quite young (15/13), and pretty cute I guess. I wrote music and sang in Crater 98-2001:
"Dream Steam" (2000),
"It Takes Two to Fugue" (2000),
and in Tumbleweed 2001-04:
"Tumbleweed" (2002)
and the 'post mortem' "Peace Conference" (2006).
My solo records so far are:
"The Time That Was Mine" (2003),
"Everywhere You've Been" (2004),
"Minor Words" (2005),
"Mine Now" (2006), Bayou Blackbird (2008).
I'm also a proud member of AT-83 and the duo Glöden.
I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:
Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.
Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka
Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.
If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.

Tack själv! Det var en riktigt trevlig kväll tycker jag. Jag lyssnade på ep-n, det låter jättefint. Lite folkigare med den större sättningen och det är alltid positivt med folk i mina öron! Ha det fint. Rosie
