Peter Svensson

Anders Peter Svensson is a Swedish record producer, songwriter, and musician. He is the former main songwriter and guitarist of the band the Cardigans. Svensson started playing guitar at the age of eight, and in his teens he went on to play with local bands. After meeting bass player Magnus Sveningsson, they formed The Cardigans in 1992. Svensson is credited with writing the music and melodies for almost all of the group's original songs. In 1998, he released a side/solo project called Paus. All songs were co-written together with Joakim Berg from the band Kent. The drums were played by The Cardigans' drummer Bengt Lagerberg. In 1999, Paus's self-titled debut album and Svensson’s work on The Cardigans' fourth album, Gran Turismo, earned him a Swedish Grammy as Composer of the Year. Svensson and Berg co-wrote Swedish singer Titiyo’s album, Come Along, with the single "Come Along" becoming a hit and later awarded a Swedish Grammy for Song of the Year. Since the last album with The Cardigans, Super Extra Gravity, Svensson has written and produced songs for numerous international artists, including The Weeknd, Ariana Grande, Ellie Goulding and One Direction.
