Olaf & Me (ebook)
Many European artists and musicians dream of coming to North America to pursue professional careers in the "land of plenty." Not many succeed, but Olaf Sveen was one who did. He not only established himself as a successful recording artist, producing more than thirty albums, selling well over 250,000 copies, but—through his compositions and records—became an integral figure in the creation of a unique Western Canadian style of accordion music.
Along the way, he became an inspiration to others, among them the author of this biography. Olaf & Me tells the story of an unassuming legend and one of his greatest admirers and long-time friends.
