He is ranged as one of the best hard rock vocalists in Europe, and along with Gilbert and Eirik we are looking forward to bring the “Magic Pie” song arrangements up to the next level.

"I am very excited about joining in as a member of the Pie-Family. This will be something totally different from what I have done before, but musically I feel very much at home in Magic Pie. I am a fan of bands like Kansas and early Alan Parson´s Project and I look forward to work with Kim (and the others) on some song-writing. Kim´s songwriting is the heart of Magic-Pie and I hope I can tribute to his work – time will tell! As for my other projects, I will still be a member of Ken Hensley´s Live-Fire and I am starting a band with Trond Holter from Wig-Wam as well. Looks like 2008 is going to be a busy year...well as I often say – busy while still breathing, rest when you´re dead."
