Early life
Rolf Magnus Joakim Larsson was born in Stockholm, Sweden on 19 August 1963.
When he was eight years old, he would sit in front of the television or radio with a tape recorder and try to capture songs from the UK or US that he liked and listen to them over and over again. He learned how to play the piano and a friend of his father's taught him three chords (A, D and E) on his sister's acoustic guitar.[2]
