Owe Thörnqvist made a difference!
First to the stage, last to leave
He has been on the scene for over 40 years. He has made a mark on the Swedish music landscape like very few others. He toured with the Swedish band "Lasse Stefanz” for 12 years. He released his first solo album when he was 23 years old and since then he has released 17 solo albums.
Owe is known for his warm voice and he has a large fan base that is very loyal to him. He has performed at many large venues, but he still enjoys most playing at smaller places where he can have close contact with his audience.
Owe is also known for his engagement in social issues. He is a goodwill ambassador for the Swedish Red Cross, and he has spoken out against racism and discrimination. He is a role model for many people both in Sweden and abroad.
Winner of the Swedish music competition Melodifestivalen
In 2018, Owe won the Swedish music competition Melodifestivalen with the song "Sverige". The song was a great success both in Sweden and globally. It was streamed over 15 million times on Spotify and it charted in several countries around the world.
Owe's victory in Melodifestivalen was a surprise to many people, but he proved to the world that he is still a force to be reckoned with. He is a true legend of Swedish music and he continues to inspire people with his music and his positive attitude.
A role model for others
Owe is a role model for many people. He shows that it is possible to achieve great things if you have a dream and you are willing to work hard. He is also a reminder that it is never too late to pursue your dreams.
In 2023, he will be inducted into the Swedish Music Hall of Fame. He is the first person to be inducted into the hall of fame without having released an album in the year they are inducted. He deserves to be celebrated for his contributions to Swedish music. He is a true legend and an inspiration for all of us.
