What are your experiences in the music industry?

I have had 3 years of education at the Ballet Academy School in Gothenburg, so I am actually a musical artist.

- Could you give us a summary of your career in music so far?

My first job after school was RENT! I loved that musical and it went on for over 2 years. After that I produced my own shows for Silja Line. There were Schlagershows, Queenshows and 80's-shows.

Later on I worked as a TV-presentor for  Swedish tv3.  I then had to live in Hilversum, Holland for 6 months. I came home and started to work with a showgroup called SchlagerFever, of course all we sang was music from Eurovision. Swedish people in general love this big happening!
Through SchlagerFever I have been doing backings for almost every famous singer in Sweden and it's been a great experience.

I also record songs myself and sometimes I work with different songwriters who write for me. We also have  a studio at home and that helps.

Hopefully it will turn out to be worth it some day.
 

- How did you end up being a backing vocalist for Ace of Base?

I was called up and asked if I was interested to go down to Gothenburg to audition for Ace of Base's tour. First I was surprised cause I didn't know they were still working.  I had no expectations but when I met these wonderful persons I felt that it would be great to work with them

• Backingsinger

• worked before singing as Tv-presentator for Swedish TV3.

• She will do also the backingvocals for the forthcoming album of Ace of Base.

• Quote: ''I really love to be on this tour, and it's because of all the fantastic people that I work with!''

- What were your expectations for the concerts?

I didn't have any expectations for the concerts cause it was so much work before we started the tour,
and our first trip to Russia really surprised me. It suddenly hit me how many fans that are still out there -amazing!
- Will you be there during the upcoming world tour?

I will be working with this tour as long as I can, maybe some concerts I will have a stand-in.

 - Will you be working on the new album?

I have been asked to do some backing vocals for their new album and I am very happy. It's going to be a lot of fun!

 - Who are your favorite artists?

I listen to all kinds of music such as: Pink, Michael Bublé, Gwen Stefani, Work of Art, Mika, Salem al Fakir, Dolly P, Whitney H, just to name a few...

 - Had you listened to Ace of Base before?

In my youth I listened to Ace of Base's hit songs but I never bought an album.

 - Which song do you like performing best?

I love to perform "Beautiful Life"! Such a great song filled with happiness!

 - How do you like traveling around for the current tour?

I really love to be on this tour, and it's because of all the fantastic people that I work with!

Life on tour is not always easy, you don't sleep that much and spend hours on airplanes, so you need good people around you to feel relaxed and happy.

Though I miss my family a lot when I travel, I have a wonderful time and I'll get to see the world!
