Perry Stenbäck

Perry Stenbäck, a Swedish-born guitarist and multi-instrumentalist based in Jelling, Denmark, has carved out a diverse career blending blues, folk, and roots music with classical, rock, and pop influences. Born in Stockholm in 1970, he holds a Master’s degree in performance from RMC Copenhagen and has contributed to over 150 recordings, earning Danish Grammy nominations and a 2009 DMA win as "Instrumentalist of the Year." His work includes session gigs across genres and collaborations ranging from folk ensembles like Dekadansorkestern – where he performs Swedish material, including Cornelis Vreeswijk interpretations – to projects straddling traditional and contemporary sounds. Recent releases like *Kärlek och felsteg* and *Spår efter dig* reflect his singer-songwriter focus, while *Egtvedpigens sang* and *Änglamark och barn* showcase his knack for blending Nordic folk traditions with modern arrangements. A true string polymath, Stenbäck plays everything from lap steel and nyckelharpa to mandolin and banjo, cementing his reputation as Denmark’s go-to session player for genre-fluid craftsmanship.
