Danish west coast soul…
Ole Boskov is a singer/songwriter from Denmark, who has written songs since he wa a kid. He released his debut album “Listen to the Wind” in 1996 and was followed up 2 years later with the album “Mr Romance”.
Some of his greatest influences have been artists like: Bruce Hornsby, John Hiatt, Van Morisson, The Band, Eagles, Don Henley, Little Feat, Billy Joel and Elton John. These are the ones that have influenced me the most, but of course there are so many great artists that I have listened to through the years. I have also been very much into listening to Jazz and I am a great fan of players like: Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Joe Zawinul, Oscar Peterson and Erroll Garner, said Ole Boskov in a radio interview.
Ole Boskov is very pop influenced person and love good pop songs, so his big ambition is to make quality pop that has a broad appeal but which can also be enjoyed by the more esoteric listener.
He played for a numerous number of people both live and in the recording studio. Some of his credits are: Backseat, Mark Janicello, David Pomerantz, Svenne & Lotta, Ester Brohus, Maxine Nightingale and Jeannie Deva.
In 2011 Ole Boskov died after a long battle with cancer.
