Rikard From

Hi! I'm Rikard From. Musician, singer/songwriter, composer and producer. Diy artist. I released my first album Piano in 2017 unaware of what would happen. 8 years later with over 60 million streams and 130 million views on YouTube. 7 albums, one EP and at the time of writing a total of 140 released songs.

My most successful album is Sun of June. Recorded in my home on an old swedish upright piano. Through the years I've modified the piano to get a tone and feel that match my ideas. 
I record everything myself and play all instruments. On the Sun of June album there's a mix with drums on keyboard and real drums by Per Mikaelsson. All upright bass parts played by me.

Currently recording my second vocal album, a solo piano album and collaborations with xander on lofi-jazz. At the same time modifying my studio to a full analog recording path for even more pristine recordings. And there's much more to come. 
I'm heading out to play and hopefully we meet somewhere along the way!

/Rikard
