MIKE AND KAJSA VALA RELEASES NEW SINGLE
Two of Denmarks hottest names in roots-music, Kajsa Vala and Mike Andersen, team up on this brand new soulful and bluesy pop song, FLY FREE.
Kajsa and Mike wrote this song together in just a few hours, on a random afternoon. Both artists have been based in Aarhus, Denmark most of their lives, and have known each other for decades through the local music scene. Making music together though, is a fairly new thing for Kajsa and Mike.
The song was recorded in a local studio in their hometown.
Kajsa and Mike laid down their vocals and guitarparts simultaneously in a live-take. This is the ‘take’ you see in the official music video
Kajsa then took down the studio’s bass from the wall, and after that got behind the drums.
At last, they both grabbed an electric guitar and added the guitar solos and the guitar-chase that closes the song.
Just like the writing process, -this all took but a few hours.
Sometimes the music writes and plays itself…FLY FREE was one of those songs!

MIKE ANDERSEN BAND TOUR – NOV/DEC 2023
Billetter: https://tix.to/mikeandersen
MIKE ANDERSEN BAND har i ti år været et fem-mands band, -men bandets mange årige pianist har grundet travlhed med andre ting måtte forlade bandet.
Derfor har Mike Andersen, Jens Kristian Dam, Johannes Nørrelykke og Kristian Kold været intensivt i øvelokalet op til denne kommende turné, og ‘genopfundet’ sig selv, som kvartet.
Du kan derfor forvente et Mike Andersen Band med en ’ny’ lyd og en bunke helt nyskrevne sange, samt selvfølgelig sange fra bagkataloget og den energi, nerve og nærvær du kender fra en MIKE ANDERSEN BAND-koncert.
Mike Andersen – vokal/guitar
Johannes Nørrelykke – guitar/vokal
Kristian Kold – Bas
Jens Kristian Dam – trommer
AKUSTISK SOLO TOUR – SEPT/OKT 2023
Mike Andersen har altid været kendt for at stå i front af sit powerfulde Mike Andersen Band.Efter det DMA-vindende akustiske solo album, One Million Miles, er netop de akustiske solo koncerter blevet nogle af hans mest populære koncerter. I September og oktober tager han på solo tour i Danmark. Han går alene på scenen med sine sange, sine guitarer og sine personlige fortællinger.. leveret med nerve, humor og nærvær.
‘Det kræver mod – foruden gode sange – at skrælle alt overflødigt væk. Nogle gange vælter korthuset. Andre gange viser det sig at stå yderst solidt. I Mike Andersens tilfælde er sidstnævnte tilfældet, og han får med al tydelighed cementeret, at han også mestrer solo formatet’ -Simon Staun, Fyens Stiftstidende

KATRINE SCHMIDT FEAT. MIKE ANDERSEN
Late one night a while ago, an awesome singer and songwriter, Katrine Schmidt, sent me a demo of a song she wrote with her pianoplayer, Johannes Aaen Jensen.The song immediately ‘spoke’ to me, -and I felt honored when Katrine told me it was a duet, and asked if I would sing it with her.We went into the studio a few weeks ago, and recorded this LIVE-version of the song.
LIVE ON TSF JAZZ RADIO
Recently I guested Jean-Jaques Milteau and Johan Dalgaard’s radio show ‘Bon Temps Rouler’ at TSF JAZZ Radio’s headquater in the heart of Paris. We spoke for and hour and a half, listened to some amazing music, -and I played four songs live and acoustic right there in the radio studioI already knew that Johan is a world class piano player, and I was thrilled that he joined me on two songs – and both Johan and I were excited when Jean-Jacques pulled out his harmonica and joined us as well.
You can hear the Radio Show as a podcast on TSF’s website:

Bureau de Sophie Louvet will make sure you read and hear about in the French media, and my French agency, On The Road Again, has, besides sending us to several cool festivals in beautiful France this summer, booked a band show at the legendary Jazz Club Etoile in Paris Dec 15.A big shoutout Johan Dalgaard for helping putting this rad team together, to TSF JAZZ Radio in Paris, who supports this release by giving the album a lot of attention, and to Soul Bag mag for doing the same! I hope this is all the beginning of playing more shows in one of my favorite countries 
DECEMBER BAND TOUR
Jeg har altid følt mig heldig og stolt over de musikere der har spillet med i Mike Andersen Band.
Bandet har i sin nuværende form eksisteret i mere end ti år.
Vi har sammen rejst rundt i det meste af Europa, og spillet hundredevis koncerter.
Hver eneste gang vi går på scenen, elsker jeg at være en del af den lyd vi sammen har bygget op!
Til dette års ‘Danish Music Awards – Blues’ kunne vi tage hjem med hele to statuetter (Årets Livenavn & Årets Udgivelse), og det vil vi gøre vores yderste for at leve op til når vi rammer syv danske byer i december.
Håber vi ses!

TO DANISH MUSIC AWARDS – TAK!
‘LIVEPRISEN’
Jeg har altid set mig selv som en ‘spillemand’, så en livepris varmer virkelig mit hjerte.
Først og fremmest tak til de mennesker der kommer og ser koncerterne! I løbet af Corona nedlukningerne, gik det for alvor op for mig, hvor stor og vital en del af mit liv det er, at spille og synge for et publikum.
Det gik op for mig at jeg bliver skør af ikke at gøre det.
Jeg deler i dén grad æren for denne pris med bandet: Jens Kristian Dam, Kristian Kold, Johannes Nørrelykke og Kristian Fogh, -samt Rune Duelund der laver lyd, Bjarne Rask der kører bussen og sørger for guitarer og amps er top tunede, og vores booking bureau, fmk.NU.
‘ÅRETS DANSKE BLUESUDGIVELSE’
Bluesmusikken er mit fundament. Jeg ELSKER den. Men som musiker og menneske forløses jeg bedst når jeg lader mig inspirere af alt hvad der rører mig – og lader det flyde frit.
Derfor gør det mig glad at være med i denne kategori
På vegne af bandet og mig selv, vil jeg sige tak Mikkel Bøggild som har optaget, -Russell Elevado der har mixet, Brian Mørk Hansen der har mastereret, Rasmus Bundgaard der har taget billederne og Lars Hedemann der har lavet artwork.
Og ikke mindst tak til alle jer, der har taget så godt imod dette album. Det betyder meget for os!
Tak til Juryerne, TEMPI, ROSA og JazzDanmark.
Tillykke til alle nominerede. Det var stærke felter at være med i.
Også stor tak til min familie for tålmodighed og opbakning til mit skøre sigøjnerliv!

TAK, POVL DISSING!
Visse minder fylder mere end andre, og dét her er jeg særligt taknemmelig for🙏
Povl var så sød og nærværende, og jeg gjorde hvad jeg kunne for at finde roen, selvom jeg var begejstret som en lille dreng, og lidt nervøs samtidig!
Povl Dissing forenede på smuk og poetisk vis alt jeg elsker ved musik, og står for mig som et lysende fyrtårn, der opfordrer os alle til at lyde som os selv.
Povl Dissing, -DU lød som ingen andre, og du lød altid fuldstændig MAGISK for mig!
Tak!

REVIEW FROM SOUL BAG MAGAZINE (France)
Review (freely) translated into english:
“With consistency, elegance and a discretion owing both to his temperament and a certain negligence towards the media, the Dane Mike Andersen is creating a body of work that is distinguished by its quality and his instinct for renewal. Never wanting to repeat himself, each of his albums – this one is his 9th – adopts an aesthetic different from its predecessors, while remaining faithful to the American roots music which constitutes its cultural main ground.
The older he gets, the more touching and true his music sounds, stripped of any superfluous elements. Undoubtedly because at 44 years old, the singer is beginning to take stock of his life and career… A soft melancholy emanates from these ten mostly mid-tempo and acoustic pieces, mixed with lightning bolts of electric guitar, haunted choirs or translucid keyboards. But Andersen doesn’t doesn’t suffer from neurasthenic sadness. Anger often arises in him, as in the vehement opening title, Slamming the Door, or in the accusatory Because of you. His favorite themes – betrayal, regret, thirst for freedom – are carried by compositions that evolve halfway between blues, folk and dark country, allowing themselves a few successful escapes into swamp rock territories (the tremolo-drenched groove of I can dance) or rhythm & blues (the frenzied Raise your hand).
Perfectly performed by musicians who have followed him with devotion for 10 years, both on stage and in the studio, this album displays a chiaroscuro, deeply authentic charm, and turns out a little more endearing with each listen.”
NEW ALBUM, ‘RAISE YOUR HAND’, OUT NOW!
The band and I (and a lot of other amazing people) put our hearts and souls into this album.
We are so excited to finally share with you all!

https://imusic.dk/exp…/14150/mike-andersen-raise-your-hand
Mike Andersen opens up his 9th album with a bang: an autobiographical song, ‘Slamming The Door’. A humorous piece about being aware of what kind of person you want to become, both in music and in life before you actually end up slamming a door you should have left open.
“I’ve been writing sad songs for so long, and then it struck me: The only way to survive emotionally in these turbulent times is to embrace the chaos we’ve been thrown into and accept the fact that, Yes, we all get messed up sometimes but that’s ok. We can face this together.”
It was out of this, that the title song ‘Raise your Hand’ was born. The sound of this song is different from the rest of the album, being more old school with upright bass and horns – it’s different from we’ve been accustomed to hearing from Mike and the band.
The rest of the album moves effortlessly through the myriad of genres we know from earlier Mike Andersen Band albums: A personal mix of the blues and soul music Mike fell in love with at an early age, but without the tyranny of “genre dogma”. Mike and the band demonstrate increasing inspiration from today’s music.
With these 10 new original songs, Mike Andersen (at the ripe age of 44) takes us through the life stories of a man who has made it halfway.
From the tale of a guy who is so beaten by life’s hardships, that he fears he may not be able to get up again after another bout; to a song about those days when good energy streams through our bodies and makes even the most hopeless dancer jump on the dance floor and dance like he’s never done anything else.
From the paradox of a coffee date at midnight to magical moments when we break free from our worries and concerns to the “murder ballad” of a man who fantasizes about emptying both barrels of a shotgun into the man his loved one betrayed him with.
Mike Andersen, in combining his characteristic voice and intense guitar phrasing with, and not the least, the fantastic band he’s had on the road for more than ten years, has created an album of natural practiced elegance. To capture such raw emotion and authenticity, the album was recorded ‘live in the studio’ on analog tape.
‘Raise Your Hand’ entered the Danish Vinyl Top40 in it’s first week as #12. It’s has stayed in the chart for four weeks now, and is currently #9.
FINALLY FREE – OUT NOW
Hear the song:https://MikeAndersen.lnk.to/Free
4th and last single before ALBUM RELEASE (Sept 19.)
I co-wrote this song with my buddy, the guitar legend, Billy Cross. Billy said to me at some point, with a gleam in his eye: “Mike, you know, it’s actually possible to write songs about other stuff than sad love and depression”. I told Billy, “well…you gotta help me write one then.”Same afternoon we wrote this song together. The song is about letting go off all worries, even if it’s only for a while, and allowing yourself to feel FREE!
Billy plays the slide guitar on the recording.
Check out the song, and have an amazing weekend everyone!

SIXTEEN TONS – WITH JOSS STONE
Back in 2016 I had the pleasure of spending some time with the amazing Joss Stone on a sunny day in Copenhagen.
On Joss’ Total World Tour, she met with an artist in each country and sang a song in that country’s language.
I was fortunate to be that artist, when Joss’ tour brought her to Denmark.
Joss Stone is the sweetest and warmest woman you can imagine, and of course, as you all know, an absolutely amazing singer.
I still remember the goosebumps I got, sitting this close to her voice!
SLAMMING THE DOOR – LIVE SESSION
WARM UP!
In three weeks from now, we’re releasing the title-song from our upcoming album, RAISE YOUR HAND! ..and hopefully we’ll soon be back the road 
To warm up, we recorded a live session with first-take versions of the two previous singles, and of course the upcoming ´Raise Your Hand’.
We’ll post one song every friday until the single release, starting today with ‘SLAMMING THE DOOR’.
ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND EVERYONE AND SEE YOU SOON!

GO GO BERLIN COVER
Signe Svendsen udfordrede mig forleden til at være med i hendes “rundesang”.
Udfordringen hed: ”…upload en coverversion af en sang du har haft på hjernen”. I dag opfordrede Kajsa Vala mig til at poste en “hjemmecover”.
Hvis ikke jeg lægger noget ud nu, så hænger jeg på at være en kylling i de to power kvinders øjne på den anden side af denne surrealistiske tid. Det går ikke!
Her er mit akustiske one-man take på en sang af et af min bys absolutte stærkeste rock bands @gogoberlin !
Tak for lån af sangen!

In August 2019 I had my third trip to Romania.
It was around the release of my acoustic album, One Million Miles, and I played three solo concerts in Romania, arranged by my friend, Andrei Popa / European Blues Radio

Snobbish Burger is of the coolest and coziest places I’ve ever been at. A mix of art, music, quality food, and the warmest people you’ll ever find, make this place truly unique!
I hope I get the chance to come back!

“ANMELDELSE” AF TEST-KONCERT
..for at blive klar til min solo tour, spillede jeg for nylig et par koncerter “under radaren” hos Bag Duggede Ruder i Taastrup og CLUB KLONDYKE på Østerbro.
Ivan Pedersen har skrevet disse ord om sin oplevelsen af koncerten i Club Klondyke. (se nedenfor)
Jeg håber vi ses et sted ude i landet når jeg starter turneen i næste uge!
Tourplan/Billetter:
www.mikeandersen.com/tour-plan
KH Mike
Mike Andersen er en elsket gæst i club Klondyke, og naturligvis kom han tilbage, nu han har lavet et album med spritnye sange i den mest nøgne udgave, tænkes kan – nemlig solo i studiet.
Klassikeren: En mand og hans elskede guitar plus et stomp-board (et bræt m. indbygget mikrofon, der kan erstatte en stortromme)
Fuldstændig ”on top of his game” leverer Mike (som hedder Mikkel og er fra Røde Kro) ubesværet – med sit effektive guitarspil som fuldfed backing – bluesfunderede sange om livets op og nedture, om smerte, længsel og dirrende kærlighed, så enhver må høre efter OG vippe med tæerne imens.
Det er en fornøjelse at høre en kunstner, der aldeles har fundet sin ”ting”: Sin vibe, sin stemme og sit udtryk.
Mikes meget rytmiske akkompagnement og ”maskuline håndtering” af sin gamle, akustiske guitar efterlader nærmest tilhøreren med en oplevelse af et fuldt band bag ham, og Andersen formåede, med dette no nonsens set-up, at fastholde sit publikum i intens medleven i en god times tid.
Ekstranumre? – naturligvis!
Mike Andersen er en blivende kvalitets-kunstner i sin genre, og vi er vilde med, at han også finder tid til vores lille scene mellem sine mange danske og udenlandske koncerter.

Her en lidt forkortet version…skulle nødig vække resten af hotellet.

TAK FOR MODTAGELSEN
I sidste uge var første gang jeg var ude og møde jer med “One Million Miles.”
Jeg dedikerede en lille seance ved vores koncert hos Roots & Jazz på Balders Plads i KBH til albummet, og så havde jeg æren af at varme op for Keb’ Mo’ i en proppet Amager Bio med sangene fra One Million Miles.
Jeg har kunnet se, at opmærksomheden på diverse streamingtjenester lige siden har været stor – mange af jer har skrevet jeres respons på albummet direkte til mig, og vinylen er røget tilbage på Top40 på en første plads.
Tak for modtagelsen… det er rørende!
Jeg håber vi ses, når jeg for alvor tager på Danmarkstour med albummet i september/oktober!
Indtil da… GOD SOMMER!
