Then I will be off work as much as possible, says Helen Sj\u00f6holm.<\/p>\n<p>Dagbladet met her in the dressing room backstage in Tonhallen before the dress rehearsal with the band last night. This evening she begins her first tour in Sweden for six years with two (!) sold-out concerts.<br \/>\n&#8211; I have many relatives and friends in town, Helen Sj\u00f6holm says, laughing.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Is it special to have the premiere in Sundsvall?<\/strong> <\/em><br \/>\n&#8211; Yes, it is. But it feels great. I wanted the premiere to be held in Sundsvall.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Nervous?<\/strong> <\/em><br \/>\n&#8211; Yes. I&#8217;m always nervous before a performance, even when I play five times a week.<\/p>\n<p>After today&#8217;s double premiere a big tour is planned in Sweden (25 concerts) where an extra concert is added in Sundsvall on April 12. The tour is based on the latest album by Billy Joel songs, but there are also a lot more.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Something from &#8220;Kristina from Duvemala&#8221;? BAO-hits?<\/strong> <\/em><br \/>\n&#8211; Well, probably not. But there are some other things, maybe something out of &#8220;Aniara&#8221; and &#8220;Gabriella&#8217;s Song&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;Fan-tas-tic band&#8221;<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you ask her about the band &#8211; Martin \u00d6stergren, piano, Jojje Wadenius, guitar, Gunnar Nord\u00e9n, guitar, Andr\u00e9 Ferrari, drums, Fredrik Jonsson, Bass, Hanna Helgegren, violin, Johanna Tafvelin, violin, Asa Stove Paulsson, viola and Anna S . Wallgren, cello &#8211; she is ecstatic:<br \/>\n&#8211; The band? Totally fan-tas-tic! says Helen Sj\u00f6holm. &#8211; It feels so luxurious that we could bring the string quartet on the tour that we wanted so much. Super luxury.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Anything else going on?<\/strong> <\/em><br \/>\n&#8211; We are about to record an album with Benny Andersson&#8217;s orchestra, BAO. We will tour this summer. &#8211; It&#8217;s the only thing I have planned after the spring tour, Helen Sj\u00f6holm says.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Maybe something for the Street party?<\/strong> <\/em><br \/>\n&#8211; No, BAO&#8217;s a dance band.
