Life is what happens to us all. A great subject for songs - songs about life!
With a foundation of music from The Swinging 60s, spiced up with influences from various styles of music, Mr Krax gives you songs about life. This is music that pops and rocks with a funky blues twist! It comes from the mind of probably one of the best songwriters that no one cares about… Learn more here.
From 2013 Mr Krax is available in the digital market. As of today there are 27 song collections in full length out there and more to come. There are also a couple of singles and EPs. Out of the large back catalogue one more song collection is waiting for release.

2015 the first song collection in Swedish language was released digitally. When singing in Swedish he calls himself Herr Krax.
The three part suite Opus X, which was written mostly in 1974, has been on hold for a while waiting patiently for its turn. Two of the parts are both just short of twenty minutes and the idea at the time was to have them fit onto a vinyl LP, which was the standard format then. These days we will stick to streaming and download, for now at least. The third part is an instrumental Prelude that was recorded earlier but not yet digitally released. In 2024 it’s 50 years since it was written and as we like anniversaries the release will take place early in 2024. Later in the year it’s time for another anniversary but more about that later...

During 2022 Mr Krax made a song collection with a theme for the first time. It all began on February 24th when Russia started the aggression against Ukraine. All previous plans were abandoned and a collection of songs that in some way would fit the theme of peace and nonviolence was assembled. Some of which were not even written yet!
This is Krax for Peace!
The single ”Straightjacket for Putin” is not included but it sure is a part of the concept!
