Nordic Acoustic Guitar Festival
Master luthier Michael Sandén and Homesick Mac have also joined forces in organising the first completely acoustic guitar festival in Scandinavia. During it's first two years (2005 & 2006) it featured some of the finest guitarists in Scandinavia. The idea is to give "local" people a chance here, there are other fine festivals out there where the audiences can hear all major international acoustic acts. Please visit the site and stay in tune for the big update there as well.
The dates are March 6-8th 2008/ please visit for the latest update!
