Jo Espen Bergseth - bass
Oslo born Jo Espen bought himself an electric guitar with money he got as present in his youth. But when he was 22, his brother had started a band, with a bassist who would rather play drums. One day his brother came home with a bass guitar, asking Jo Espen to learn to play befor the band rehearsal next week. That's how it turned out - fortunately. Jo Espen has earlier played in different bands: in the 90s with Violet Scene, and in the 00s with Haddy N'Jie & A Few Good Men. Besides showing a good drive with his bass guitar, he is a cool guy with a good sense of humour.
