Tell us a little about yourself,
have you been playing music all
your life or, age, family,
interests etc? Band before?
-Yeah you, what is there to tell, really? Raised in the small Lerum with mom, dad, older brother and younger sister. I started playing music when I was 17-18 years, borrowed my brother's guitar, which I later bought out for 200 kronor. Started writing some songs for it was fun creation. I few years later would release a record was not on the map. But I've done that now and my brother's guitar, I have left and it's still using it I write my music. I understand that you are compared bit by Håkan ... .How do you see it yourself, tiring, compliment and you understand that? -Yes it has been so. A little tiring, as I have many other influences, but of course it is flattering. Will definitely not complaining, when Håkan is the best we have provided me. But when people say I try to copy Håkan outright, then I can get tired. It is far from the truth. I really believe that if one sings and writes in Swedish, playing pop and is from Gothenburg, so it's very easy to get a Håkan stamp.
What have people compared you to?
I think it's fantastic when you do
not come from the Idol road
without going up in this way. Idol
has never been a dream for you (I
hope)?
-Haha No no, I do not think my voice would have fit in there either. Then to compete in music, I think this is strange. You've released a proper album, it was important to get it physically? Have you released it yourself? -Yeah right. For me it was important, perhaps more than for those who listen when everything is online. But there is something special about having music in the form of a physical object. Yes they turned out so, that I had to let go of the self. Since I am not someone have never played in any other bands or done anything at all in musikway it felt pretty obvious to release it himself. Now I introduced myself. The selling a lot from what I understand, how many items were made? -There is two different records. First, the disc itself and one Lilla London Brinner Little London is burning and a cover of Kristian Anttila Hisingen-Manhattan. So it is up altogether 400 discs. And there are not many left, which is fun of course! If you want you can trudge off to Bengans on Stigbergstorget and buy it. You are played much on the radio, etc? -Smaller Channels play songs I know and last winter was me and the band with the P4. But beyond that I do not know, it might not be the kind of music played on the radio nowadays.
You told us that there has been
much to make it last, what has it
been then? Other great bands / artists in
Gothenburg, Sweden right now?

Five things were even more difficult. I do not know? Train, bus and tram then I do not have a driver's license. First, last and most expensive
record you bought?
When playing gigs, what is the
type of people who comes? Is there
any type of people that you miss?
-It Is quite mixed, but because it is club gigs for the most part it is people over 18 and under 40. I have received emails and aspirations of playing in other cities and even to those who are under 18 years, which is great of course. I want nothing more than to play outside of town. But it is unfortunately not up to me, but the organizers of your city where you live. What is the best thing about playing live? -Frisky unit-Happiness-the nervousness that is during the day and hour before going on! Then to play for people in general are incredibly fun! Can the people of your texts already and sing with? -It is mixed, but it usually sung with at gigs. It's very nice and cool.
How do you think it is to live
in Sweden ... politically, etc.?
-I like living in Sweden and if you compare with other countries, we have it pretty good. But it's nowhere near as good as it should and could be. Welfare and integration policies are two important and current topics according to me, and where there is a lot to improve. I hope you like Håkan like GAIS or maybe you do not care about football? -Haha unfortunately not, I'm an blue and white since childhood. Arre you called Glenn, then it has not much to choose from? My father often took me to the IFK Göteborgs matches at old Gamla Ullevi. Nowadays I do not follow Allsvenskan as slavishly as when I was younger. But yes, I check still some matches. I played football until I turned 22, then music took over. But the dream was always to become a professional soccer player. A dream that I can still feel bad that I did not reach. Would you be willing to do a tribute to something you believe in, a football team, any political etc or do you not put you in something special compartment? -Yeah, I'd probably be able to imagine, but there is nothing I might see myself doing yet. Right now it becomes small tributes to people who touched me in some way, even if it does not appear in the texts whom the song is addressed. What is the best and the worst
written about your record so
far?
Futureplans with the music? |
