Peter Carlsohn started to play bass in the 1970s, and is maybe best known for being the bass-player for Jerusalem since 1980.
Now he has released his first solo album Out Of The Blue under the name Peter Carlsohn's The Rise.
Peter's long time rock'n'roll-brother Michael Ulvsgärd (Jerusalem) plays the drums. This duo has played together since 1981 in Jerusalem, and in other bands.
On the album Stephen Carlson (Brotthogg, Mr Hansen Band, Gil Edwards, freelance musician) plays lead & rhythm guitar, Peter's brother Lars Carlsohn plays rhythm guitar, Svenne Jansson (Glam, Golden Resurrection, Jerusalem) plays keyboards and Hammond-organ.
Peter's Red Band-friend Cutta John Kåre Gullestad (Cutta, Crush, Rune Edvardsen & Red Band, Steven K Band, Heartless) sings backing-vocal, and co-lead vocals on some of the songs.
