“Erik Sjøholm’s musical journey began not just in the melodies of his childhood, but in the stories of his ancestors, whose voices still echo in his soul. Growing up surrounded by the rich folklore and myths of his Nordic heritage, Erik was drawn to the power of storytelling as a way to understand the world and his place in it. This connection to the past has profoundly shaped his approach to music, where each song becomes a narrative—a piece of a larger myth that speaks to the timeless themes of love, loss, and the quest for meaning. As a singer-songwriter, producer, and recording artist, Erik has spent years honing his craft, blending acoustic warmth with the depth of his lyrical storytelling. His music is more than just songs—it is a journey, a pilgrimage through the landscapes of the heart and soul. Influenced by his personal hero’s journey, Erik’s work is an exploration of the self, the spirit, and the intricate web of connections that bind us all. With each performance, he seeks to create a space where listeners can find their own stories reflected in his, offering them a moment of connection and recognition in a fragmented world.”

    uniE613 Walkabout Live
    I recorded one of my live concert and turned it into an album. The concert took place at Skafferiet at Ritz in Vasa, Finland. My job was to write and rehearse the songs for the album and organize the band as well as the recording project. I also organized the making of the cover art and publication of the album as well as marketing and promotion.
