Artist description Folksy songwriter with hard rock leanings. Please take some time to listen... I know that in general I don't sing very well, but I think I can write a decent tune. Any feedback is most welcome.

Artist History I have been writing songs for about 6 years now...these are some of the ones I managed to eek a recording out of. These recordings are just blueprints or you might say rough drafts. I have been trying to improve my singing, but I know I need a REAL vocalist to work with. I am also looking for a band.

Group Members Olav is the one responsible for the songwriting, vocals, guitars and harmonica. Jake Deehan played drums on Television Ads and on an upcoming untitled and unfinished song.

Press Reviews Reviews from people who heard my music at garageband.com/olav... Wishful Thinkin'-"Nice and raw. Truly awful. I love it." Movin' On-"Dig the edgy un-attitude...good DIY" Grunge is Dead-"Clever lyrics. You just need a drummer. I think that song could rip." Control-"You can almost hear a hit. I would like to hear this song fleshed out with bass and drums." On the Horizon-"Excelent mellow number with cool soft vocals to set the mood." Reasons-"Imagine Nick Drake when he was learning." Abandoned-"love it.....the almost drunken vocals, shows total passion in the lyrics. Keep it up." Urban Sprawl-"Good vocals, although the lyrics could use a little work-sound a little over earnest. Not bad, in fact better than about 75% of the stuff currently on the radio."
