I’m so lucky to have the most talented and coolest musicians ever with me. The first time we worked together was in February 2006 at Jokkmokks Marknad, the big winter market of Jokkmokk. Five weeks of tour experience later, we became a great team – on stage, backstage and not even close to stage. Let me introduce to you the Peter Tikkanen Trio!

The Peter Tikkanen trio is an ensemble with their roots in Piteå. The trio consists of Peter Tikkanen on the piano, Tobias Helén on bass and Johan Englund on drums and percussion. Since they started playing together in 2002 the trio has recorded two CD’s and made a great number of shows throughout Sweden. The three musicians cover of a wide scale of genres. They find their inspiration in pop, rock, folk music, jazz and other improvised music. The blend of their talents and music with my songs make a perfect match and this together expresses my music just as I want it to be expressed.
