Lars Winnerbäck

Swedish singer/songwriter Lars Winnerbäck is known for his earthy blend of folk, rock, and pop. He rose into the Swedish mainstream at the turn of the millennium with his fourth album, Kom, which won him the first of many Grammis Awards, and established him as a hitmaker with a warm, literate tone and an appealing, organic sound. Beginning with 2001's Singel, Winnerbäck became a regular fixture atop the Swedish charts, notching eight consecutive number one albums. He is known for enduring songs like "Elegi" and the 2007 duet "Om du lämnade mig nu" with Miss Li. Winnerbäck remained one of the country's most popular artists throughout the 2010s, refining his sound on albums like Hosianna (2013) and Eldtuppen (2019). After 2022's Själ och hjärta, which reached number four, he returned to the top of the Swedish charts in 2023 with Neutronstjärnan, his 14th studio album. He previewed his next collection with 2026's "Hälsningar."
