…relatively speaking. Have had some airplay in The Netherlands in the last couple of weeks, which is nice.
Above & Below has yet to go double-platinum, though…
Laying some “Waitsian vocals and melodious guitar” on the audience at Hijazz. This time together with Allen Finney – and with Celal Alparslan guesting again. Hijazz, Uppsala, September 14th, 2013.
Had a good time playing & singing all acoustic and un-amped at Izzy Young’s Folklore Center together with Allen Finney. Nice talking to Izzy, too.
Electricity, who needs it?
“Waitsian vocals and melodious guitar
‘Harvester’ opens A. P. Meister’s latest offering, ‘Above and Below’. It is a melodic, guitar picking number with drawling, deep vocals which set up the tone of the whole album. Meister is a singer/songwriter who has previously explored a myriad of musical styles but has settled on this bluesy/folk genre which was a love of his from his early years. Lyrically dark and mysterious, he explores his music through guitar, picking and strumming and creating a gentle, restrained sometimes sombre, atmosphere of the smoky bar room of yesteryear.”

After many trials, tribulations and delays a bunch of boxes containing the new cd finally arrived at HQ a few days ago.
Sounds and looks really good! Official release date is the 3rd of May.
Efter många om och men har nya cd:n anlänt till högkvarteret. Fint ljud och ser riktigt bra ut! Släpps “officiellt” 3 maj.
Got some moving pictures from Hijazz, too. Shot with a rock-steady hand by my friend Pär Dahlerus.
Det lever! Hijazz 27/9 2012
Had a very nice show at Hijazz in Uppsala – a cool place to play, great sound, good people! To the right “mr Hijazz” himself, Celal Alparslan, adding some percussion magic to part of the set.
Fin kväll på Hijazz i Uppsala. Mr Hijazz själv, Celal Alparslan, bidrog med lite slagverksmagi!
Fint ljud dessutom (tack, Oskar!). Vad mer kan man begära?
