About Johan Kinde

Swedish singer, songwriter and author, born 15 May 1963 in Österåker.

In the late 1970s, Kinde became a member of the new wave band Lustans Lakejer and later became the group’s leader. He wrote songs that, among other things, alluded to film and book titles. Lustans Lakejer often changed members and Kinde became the only permanent member of the group, which was dissolved in 1986. Johan Kinde continued as a solo artist and released two solo albums in a soul pop style similar to the one that characterized Lustans Lakejer’s last two albums. He got hit songs with Behind Your Back (1988) and Valona (1990).
