New Signing: Chris Antblad

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

Angelmilk promised new talent and we can’t wait to unleash Swedish singer/songwriter Chris Antblad upon the world. Some may recognize the name – Chris was a big part of the songwriting and vocal talent behind the Spin Galley release Standing Tall, which came out on Atenzia Records in 2004.

That’s just the start – Chris Antblad has spent the better part of his adult life as a musician and primarily as a songwriter. A mix of versatility and exceptional lyricism, has led to many interesting collaborations over the years. Primarily, the songwriting has been concentrated on adult oriented rock music and country. Two styles of music that both are reliant on advanced vocal-parts and arrangements. After a few years of songwriting, the necessity for good demos fostered a vocal ability that in later years led to more and more vocal work. Growing up outside the Swedish music scene, there was little to choose from, in terms of vocalists, and necessity once again turned out to be the mother of invention. He was forced to learn the art of singing, and after a couple of uncomfortable years, he found himself a decent singer. Combined with the experience as a session keyboard player, with a lot of jazz under the belt, and decent abilities on guitar and bass, the quality of the work started to reach a professional level.
