Gustaf Kjellvander

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gustaf Kjellvander is a Swedish singer-songwriter. Before going solo, he played in the band Sideshow Bob. He has also recorded and played with his brother Christian Kjellvander. Their project went under the name Songs of Soil.

His latest album is called 'Radiola' and was recorded at Mission Hall Studio by Mathias Oldén from the band Logh.

Gustaf states that his albums are a bit like mix-tapes representing his multi-sided influences. The new album is more varied than his earlier records but maintaining his well-known writing and song style.

Gustaf was born in Sweden, then grew up outside of Seattle. After 10 years in the States his family returned to Sweden, where Gustaf as a mean of coping with boredom and alienation started writing music. One of his first gigs were at his school when he was 12 years old and so the story goes.

He's currently residing in London, travelling to Sweden and elswhere for gigs and promotion.
