Biography

Back in the fall of 1987, somewhere in the woods of Bergslagen in Sweden a band formed and called themselves Fantasy. The original members Tomas Bergsten (guitars and vocals), Michael Friman (guitars), Göran Greus (keyboards), Ekko Karttunen (bass) and Arto Karttunen (drums) played together for three years before they called it quits in early 1991. ​ In 2011 the idea came up to record the songs that I wrote while being in Fantasy but also other songs that I wrote in other short-lived line-ups with other band names. This resulted in the release of "Caught in the Dark" in 2013, "Nightwalker" 2015 and eventually the album "Oceans of Time" 2020.​ The core members of this music project is myself and my brother Tobias Bergsten. But so far many musicians have contributed to the recordings e.g. Jörgen Schelander, Per Schelander, Mats Hallstensson, Robert Dahlström, Daniel Palmqvist, Anders Moberg, Pontus Norgren, Janne Stark, Andreas Novak, Fredrik Hermansson, Tomas Unosson, Toste Nilsson, Eli Barroso, Stefan Fransson, Mattias Lidman, Michael Friman, Roger Andersson, Jamil Oscarsson, P-O Rosenberg, Jarno Taskula, Bruce Kulick, Maria Rådsten, Robin Beck & James Christian. ​ The songs vary somewhat in style but melodic hard rock is probably the most correct description if there is a need to put a label on it. ​ ​ /Tomas Bergsten - March 2020
