Email problemsIt has come to my attention that the "soundbooking.net" mail is not as trustworthy as I need it to be. We are currently working on the problems, but I want to introduce another mailadress to make sure people can get hold of me. The problem goes both ways, seems I have no control wheather my mails ends up at the reciever and I also have problems recieving. I prefer to use the soundbooking- mail, only use the Yahoo if the other fails...

WelcomeWelcome to the website for Sound Booking.
Sound Booking is the new name for "Monoment Booking", the agency run by Jens Fredrik Ryland.
"Monoment Booking" has been closed and Sound Booking takes over all responsibilities and rooster.
I have stopped my cooperation with the holding company "Monoment AS" and started on my own. Monoment AS will not work with booking after my departure so "Monoment Booking" is closed for business.
