about
Swedish guitar virtuoso Andreas Öberg was born in Stockholm on August 6, 1978. As a teenage Swedish tennis prodigy, Andreas Oberg had to make a tough decision of whether to continue his sport or pursue his true love, playing guitar. Fortunately, he chose the latter, and his agility and grace on the fret board have made him one of the most fluent young stylists playing today, further attested to in his performances alongside such musicians as Les Paul, Eros Ramazzotti, Barbara Hendricks and Joey DeFrancesco. At 30, he has mastered everything from bebop and swing to bossa nova, Gypsy jazz and fusion, enhanced with youthful, rock-driven vigor. At the age of 18, Andreas already had made a name for himself on the vibrant Swedish music scene. Performing with many of Sweden's top artists, he was also admitted to the Royal Music Academy in Stockholm.
