Just another campfire song

for solo guitar & sustain pedal

Just another campfire song was written for my dear friend Mikkel Schou of K!ART ensemble. We started talking about it somewhere during Covid lockdown (or maybe somewhat before?) and I ended up throwing away sketch after sketch.

Eventually, I started writing more and more at the guitar, and came upon an expression influenced by microtonality, blues and more – ending up in a sort of stylized “noodling”.

In the end, I think the work deals with this sort of intersection between contemporary music, microtonality, blues licks, and the guitar as a singer-songwriter instrument.
