Alf Wilhelm Lundberg - An Acoustinary World (2025) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Norwegian, Trondheim-based guitarist Alf Wilhelm Lundberg dedicates his new solo guitar album «Swingin’ On a Nine-String» to his musical hero, Canadian-American jazz guitarist Lenny Breau (1941-1984). Breau was the first guitarist to extend the guitar with an extra high string using a fishing line to achieve a high A on his 7-string classical guitar in the last years of his life. Likewise, Lundberg turned his own custom-made 8 string Brahms guitar into a 9-string Brahms guitar with high-D extension using a fishing line on the highest string. And in a miraculous coincidence, Lundberg planned to release the album on August 5th on what would have been Breau’s 80th birthday. The album was recorded at the end of July at Lundberg’s home during the Covid-19 quarantine, after a summer vacation in Italy.
