Her stage name is Tove Lo. Her real name is Tove Ebba Elsa Nilsson. She was born on October 29th 1987 and comes from Stockholm, Sweden. She is foreign pop act still young and with plenty ahead of her.
The Swedish sensation Tove Lo is a Stockholm born songwriter, Sweden's answer to La Roux. Her mixture of synthesized beats and pop melodies evoke those of her British counterpart, but there are elements of many female pop acts in her music. From Taylor Swift to the more edgy, surreal pop musician BANKS.
Her debut EP 'Truth Serum,' was only released in March this year, transporting Tove into the world of music fame and success. But her album was eagerly awaited by fans when her single back in 2013 'Habits' teleported her into the limelight. She had gone from zero to dance hero. Her song would be played all over the radio for weeks and DJ's were banging out her tune night after night across the world. She was now a world success!
Her EP continues to shine months after its release with tunes such as 'Not on Drugs,' and 'Thousand Miles' pushing Tove along the road to glory. Although a pop act by origin, Tove does have that edgier, mysterious side to her which does drift her away from the likes of Taylor Swift, and rightly so. She deserves to have her own light on her, a dark gloomy mischievous glow of a light.
But in September Tove Lo declared her debut album fit for release, and 'Queen of the Clouds' was finally out in the charts. She is currently touring around the world, and is set to play Electric Ballroom in London which will be a fitting place for the pop starlet.
Interestingly Tove has also written songs for other artists including Cher Llyod and Girls Aloud. Tove is the next song writing genius that female pop needs.
