In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Probably around the age of 3, I knew all the songs my mother used to sing to us by heart and would walk around singing them. I'd carry a songbook with me, as if I was singing whatever was in there, but I obviously couldn't even read yet! Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “By the Sea (feat. Bröderna Runnemark)” This song actually exists in two versions because I originally wrote it in Swedish. As soon as I'd written it, I knew I needed to tell the story in English as well. It stands strong on its own but also adds another layer to my homecoming story. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? I got to play an awards ceremony at the Swedish royal family's summer house on Öland. The opportunity came seemingly out of nowhere (my solo venture just getting started) and it was the perfect place to premiere my homecoming song 'Här på ön'.
