About Me

Erik Forsberg is a newborn fingerstyle guitar player with neverending ideas and a deep lust for new creative things. With a new found love in acoustic music, songs and inspiration seems to come by it self. With a mix of technic-skills and raw unpolished feeling he creates music that want to touch the listner deep inside.

"A lost soul always searching for new ideas, people and interesting thoughts of what to do with my life. Anyone out there?"

"-Born and raised in a small town of Hudiksvall in the north of Sweden. Well actually in the middle, but since the majority of the people in Sweden live south of "Dalälven" I just has to accept the fact that I come from what they call "the north". As a newborn illegal immigrant in Stockholm I’m just in the middle of finding my place in this meltingpot of people who like to be like eachother."
