Biography

Kjell Höglund (Swedish pronunciation: [ɕelː høːɡlɵnd]; born December 8, 1945 in Östersund, Sweden) is a Swedish singer-songwriter.
Höglund, who found his musical breakthrough in the 1970s, is in his native country renowned for his mixture of realism, absurdism and surrealism.
In 1992 he was nominated for a Grammis award for best male pop.
Kjell Höglund has also published books with esoteric and pseudo-scientific content.
Many of Kjells beliefs presented in these works are similar to those of the Danish new age mystic Martinus.
