Tove Styrke

Merging the bubbling electronica of Robyn using the hipster synth pop of Annie as well as the hook-laden Euro-disco of September, former Idol contestant Tove Styrke is usually another product from the burgeoning Swedish female dance scene. Given birth to in the university or college city of Umea, Vasterbotten in 1992, Styrke was influenced to go after a performing profession by her ballet trainer mom and her dad, Anders Ostman, who obtained a Swedish number 1 in the ’70s. Motivated by her piano instructor grandfather, she used the device at a age, and affected by famous brands Bob Dylan, Johnny Money, and Simon & Garfunkel, became a vocalist in a normal jazz music group in her teenagers. After modeling for numerous magazines including Glamour and Cosmopolitan, she joined this year’s 2009 Swedish edition of Pop Idol, where, because of amazing renditions of monitors by Michael Jackson, Katy Perry, as well as the Beatles, she completed third behind runner-up Calle Kristiansen and champion Erik Gronwall. Following show, she agreed upon a cope with Sony Information, and began focusing on her self-titled debut record with Patrik Berger, Lykke Li, and RAISE YOUR VOICE Louds’ Adam Olenius. Released this year 2010, it spawned two strike singles, “Mil Parts” and “Light Light Minute.”
