description: "Magnus Carlson is a Swedish singer, composer, songwriter, DJ, and record collector. After playing in various cover bands in the nineties he formed the indie group, Weeping Willows. Their 1997 debut album was an instant success and the band soon became a national household name. \nIn 2003 Magnus launched what would become a very successful solo career, establishing him as a prominent male artist in Sweden. He has released a total of 16 albums in the last twenty years, several of them gold and platinum records and he's collaborated with numerous artists. These collaborations include duets with singer Anna Ternheim, house tracks with members of Swedish House Mafia, performing Velvet Underground-covers with Nina Persson of The Cardigans and Ebbot Lundberg of The Soundtrack of Our Lives, selling out concert halls performing an acclaimed Royal Symphony Orchestral tribute to the late David Bowie, and playing horns with Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds."
