About Me

I was born the 26th of March, 1979, in a small village called Lima, located in the west part of Sweden almost at the Norwegian border. The first album that I got was "Barn av vår tid" by a swedish prog-political-rock group called Nationalteatern, I was 2 years old. After that my biggest idols, and the reason I got interested in drums, were Kiss with Peter Criss behind the drums! I started hitting boxes and cans (like everybody else, I guess), at the age of 6 and I got the first drumkit at about 7 or 8 years of age. In the 2nd grade I started taking lessons until 4th grade when I sold myself to skateboarding for a few years!
In the beginning of the 7th grade, Stefan Zell and I, very inspired by Kiss at the time, talked about starting a band and so we did. I was already playing in a rockabilly band with my uncle, a band that later would be named "Little Boo and the Virgins". Me and Stefan started the band "Arachnofobia", a band very inpired by Kiss and other bands like that, the band lasted until 1995.
Wolverine was formed 1995 and since then I've been in various projects and done various recordings thoughout the years. I studied music for 3 years in highscool and I've studied to become a musicteacher after that. Between 2002-2004 I worked fulltime with a couple of touring coverbands. There's probably more to it all that I can't remember now! :)
