Anders says: “Crank open your favorite bottle of single malt and join me on a sonic journey through the history and the streets of Edinburgh.”
Anders Buaas has played with numerous bands and produced many albums in Norway. He has been a touring guitarist for Paul DiAnno (Iron Maiden) and Tim Ripper Owens (Judas Priest) for many years before starting his own project: The Witches Of Finnmark, an instrumental journey based on stories about the prosecution of witches in Finnmark in the 16th and 17th century.
