Niklas Bergqvist (born 6 October 1962 inStockholm), is aSwedishsongwriter,producer andmusician. His career started in 1984, as a founding member of theSynthpop band Shanghai,[1] which he started along his school friends. The band released two albums and numerous singles, with their debut single "Ballerina", produced by formerEurope guitaristKee Marcello.[2]
Following the success of the single, the album also gained positive attention, resulting in the band touring around Sweden. The second, and final, studio album was produced by Swedish pop starHarpo.[3] After the band split-up in 1987, Bergqvist formed and played in several other bands until he decided to focus more on songwriting, resulting in several releases ever since. In 2015, he founded the independent record label Tracks of Sweden with songwriting partner Simon Johansson.[4]
