About Me

Tomas started writing music some two years ago, by accident during a jamsession with old friends. What started out as songs with strong country-influences, quickly changed more and more into the popsongs heard on the recordings above. Lately he has discovered the beauty of the syntheziser.
Although born in Stockholm, he was raised in the most beautiful parts of nothern Sweden - Jamtland. Here he learned how to play the guitar by learning every single riff on Metallica´s ...and justice for all-album. Some years later he discovered The Black Crowes and started his first rock´n roll band. Now he sings and plays guitar in the ever so lovely band - chief.
Educated at the National Academy of Dramatic Arts in Stockholm, Tomas makes his living as an actor. He has been on tour all around Sweden for the last couple of years in various plays, recording his new songs on a mobile phone late at night in various hotelrooms. But now he´s back in Stockholm rehearsing with the band.
Tomas plays Fender Telecasters and Vox amplifiers.
