When he was in his early teens, he learned rock and soul songs on an acoustic steel-string guitar. Through friends, he learned about blues, jazz, flamenco, and classical guitar. After he heard "Tears " by Django Reinhardt on the radio, he decided that this is how he wanted his guitar to sound. At seventeen he formed a string trio and had his first professional job.[3]
In the 1970s, Larsen worked mainly as a painter.[4] Hot Club de Norvege in 1980 with guitarists Per Frydenlund and bassist Svein Aarbostad. They had a hit record when they performed with pop singer Lillebjørn Nilsen . Larsen started the label Zonic Entertainment to record musicians who have been influenced by Frank Zappa .[3] Chet Baker , Philip Catherine , Stéphane Grappelli , Warne Marsh , Biréli Lagrène , Babik Reinhardt and Jimmy Rosenberg .[3] Hot Club Records .[2]
He has led a group of musicians who played with Zappa, including Arthur Barrow , Jimmy Carl Black , Bruce Fowler , Bunk Gardner , Tommy Mars , and Don Preston .[5] Strange News from Mars [4]
Symphonic Django was released in 2008 by Storm Films, which also produced a documentary about Larsen and guitar virtuoso Jimmy Rosenberg titled Jon & Jimmy . In 2012, the documentary won the Dutch Edison Award .[2]
After eight years of research, his book on cosmic dust in urban environments – In Search of Stardust: Amazing Micro-Meteorites and Their Terrestrial Imposters – was published in 2017.[1]
