Born in Stockholm Sweden, moved to Norway to say my first words in Norwegian. I Grew up in Malmoe Sweden with my father. I had my mother on Hawaii, far away but stil as close as my father. Studied Urban Planning in Karlskrona Sweden and Hamburg Germany. Studied cookery outside Cork in the south of Ireland. To have my heart in other places than only music is a great thing that makes me able to see the world and express it more honestly. I always sang and made music, alone or along with friends in bands. I wanted to do music that wasnt so happy that it became corny and not destructive. I wanted to do music that was alive and tried to catch my moments in a language that might or might not be similar to yours. Here is what other have said about it: He himself writes songs, that goes directly to the heart and makes it beat, as if it always were sun, summer and happy days /Bjarke Bertram diskant.dk (translated from danish) Now this is refreshing! This is one of the tightest sounding bands i have reviewed on garageband! Everything i look for in a good song is here, Melody, Harmony, Feel, Musicianship! All to a very high standard. /A garageband review Your music was highly praised by H, who is renowned for being a bit of a critic! I thought it was great as well, the evidence was on the webcam as we all danced along with you! /Xtreme Radio UK full of freshness, freedom and love of life - expressive, colourful and tender - I really love your music! /Myspace testimonial your music is realllly good! So fresh, a kind of givinsmilemusic :) /Myspace testimonial From the beginning I made music just for myself. I started to share it when friends asked for it. They spread it around and one day a producer of a friend called me. We produced the cd Gustav Magnusson together during one summer along with many skilled musicians and friends.
