Bio
...... .. ...... ...... .. ...... .. ...... ...... ...... .. ..Jonas started playing the guitar 1983, inspired by guitarplayers like Ace Frehley, Michael Schenker, Gary Moore. .. A year after Jonas started playing guitar, Jonas put his first band together and played live at some schools and even some backyard partys. (Jonas have since then done hundred of live gigs all over Sweden).. .. Summer of 1985 changed Jonas playing totally when he heard Yngwie J Malmsteen for the first time. Jonas also discovered jazz/rock guitarplayer Al Di Meola that summer. This lead to an almost obsessive guitar practicing period since Jonas wanted to take his guitarplaying to a higher level. .. .. In 1987, Jonas was in the biggest rock band competition ever held in Sweden, playing live in front of 2500 people with his band Calilio. A year later his band signed a record deal which resulted in a single that sold well over all of Europe. .. .. By the end of 1991, Jonas disolved his band and started to work on more progressive songs, during 1991 Jonas also recorded a 8 song instrumental demo which sold almost 2000 copies world wide. .. .. In 1993 Jonas put together the band he still have today, Treasure Land. ..http://www.myspace.com/treasureland.... ...... .. ...... .. ...... .. ...... .. ...... .. ...... .. ...... .. ...... .. In April 1996 Treasure Land signed a world wide record deal with German label Modern Music. Two cds later (Questions released 1997 and Gateway released 1998) Treasure Land parted ways with the label. .. .. Treasure Land also participated in two tribute cds: "Power from the north - Sweden rocks the world" 1999 and "A guitar odyssey A tribute to Yngwie J Malmsteen" 2000 .. .. ...... .. ...... .. .. ...... .. ..
