Siberian Khatru

The first single ”I’ll Be Home (in a day or so)” on Spotify and video will be released 27th March and the complete debut album ”Living In The Past” released 24th April 2020 with the Christian singer Joshua of Saga & Siberian Khatru. An artist who during the last year has been extremely productive in recording music and will therefore release two albums at the same time and a single from his upcoming 3rd album – this with Christian songs. All three projects with completely different orientations from each other. Most important he says is..”…No compulsion or need to record my music in any particular genre without the joy of being able to record exactly what I want when I want”

So much joy, rebuke and development of the songs you gave me in these pieces of music has been a wonderful journey. In addition, an incredible hospitality at your great studios and family houses. Uffe Börjesson at Earhear for great ears mastered the album.

Daddy – done what you said and you were right, miss you so much.
