The rising star in the classic instrumental synthesizer music genre Mr Firechild is making himself a name with his popular Youtube channel with over one million views in a very short time.

He was born in Sweden 1974 and discovered the Electric Organ with built in rhythm accompaniment at the age of four. A couple of years later he began studying piano and at the same time he discovered the beauty of electronic synthesizer soundscapes.

Combining the classical training with his interest for synthesizers he started to develop his own musical worlds. After getting a record deal with Universal Music in the early 2000 he had a couple of hits on the Swedish radio as the singer Evan. During his "Evan" time he was also part of the remix team Soundfactory which remixed almost every single released in Sweden in the mid 2000! Evan soon released another album, this time for Warner Music but now he starts to realise that his real passion is producing with his beloved synthesizers in the studio and not sing on the stage. Firechild was reborn! Using only or at least almost only analog synthesizers he creates beautiful musical landscapes which take you back to the past,present and in to the future. Welcome to the musical world of Firechild!
