describe Per Andreasen's way of acting. Judge for yourself reading the following interview. We meet Per Andreasen in the process of completing a project in his studio in Paris.
"In my teen-years playing with local bands in Denmark, I often dreamed about being able to compose and arrange my own music," says Per Andreasen, who continues: The dream began to
take shape when I, along with my close friend Steve Cameron, formed a band, playing our own (original) music. "
"A few years later, after intense work, we decided that we were ready to give it a try, attempting to record an album with our own music. It was extremely challenging - like losing your footing
for a while," (loosing touch) adds Per Andreasen.
The attempt, however, went so well that Steve and Per was given a record deal in Paris, which later turned out to be the start of something big. Per moved to Paris in 1985, where he, alongside
his work as a bassist, was asked to write music for various soloists.
