Donations for the CD-recording   This is a new feature I've added onto the webiste. I have with the greatest ammount of luck got the offer to record a CD to a very friendly price. I will try to make this CD as serious as possible and I would like to devide it into three parts.   Design: This will include photographs, the design of the CD-cover, the little booklet with lyrics etc. I have contacted a friend's friend who's a designer/photographer and he's up for the job to a VERY good price. When the design is finished it will be sent to the next part, (Printing).   Printing: The printing of the CD, the little booklet and CD-cover. This is the part I am working on at the moment. I have to find printingfirms who can match my requests so I have to trawl the market and try to find the best prices with good quality.   I bet this isn't the usual way to record a CD, but this is my dream and I will give it all I got to make it a reality. I hope you don't see this as a way to sneak money from you, there are no force to this whatsoever, it's just for those of you who want to help me with my dream.   I've decided that all donations from 200SEK will lead to your name being printed and thanked in the little booklet of the CD. Please e-mail me your name if you have donated. For any questions, please e-mail me at: fredriksson.johan@hotmail.com   IMPORTANT: The currency is in SEK (swedish kronor), so this table will help you. (This amount below is just an example to show, all amounts are welcome of course).     Checked the 8th of February 2012  100SEK - 13,87 USD                                        100SEK - 10,37 Euro                                        100SEK - 13,87 USD                                        100SEK - 10,37 Euro   100SEK - 13,87 USD                                        100SEK - 10,37 Euro

Welcome     Name: Kent Johan Filip Fredriksson Born: 1989, 9 August, Filipstad Starsign: Lion Lives: Säffle Interests: Music, Icehockey, Floorball Favorite Song: Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms Favorite Film: Walk The Line     Music is important to me and I think that the case is the same for the most of you to. It's a gift to be able to play an instrument and sing and will try to make the most of it.    I have different influences such as Eric Clapton, Simon And Garfunkel, Tyler Hilton, John Mayer, Stiko Per Larsson, Stephen Lynch and Johnny Cash, but the biggest of them all is Mark Knopfler. I do not try to copy Mark's style since everybody plays differently, but there is one thing besides his guitarplaying which has a huge impact on me, the way to write lyrics. Every lyric has a meaning and a story attached to it which is unique, it is that I try to achieve, but it feels natural to me to tell a story.   Music to me is a living creature and it should be unpredictable. Music at its best is when it's played live, since it's then you'll get the real feeling, both as listener and musician. A recording will always stay the same, but a song should be kept alive.   I hope that my songs can be appreciated because I want to bring the feeling that some songs bring to me. It's hard to describe exactly what it is but you know for sure when you've heard a song that has touched and affected you in some way. So let's hope that I can acheive that.   I guess that's all for now so enjoy my website, my songs and write a few lines in the guestbook.   Yours sincerely Johan Fredriksson
