Thomas Öberg

Thomas Öberg (born March 15, 1967 in Helsingborg, Sweden) is a musician.

The singer and lyricist for the Swedish indie bands bob hund, Bergman Rock, and Sci-Fi SKANE, he has been involved in many other musical endeavours, including former bands Oven & Stove, Instant Life, and a solo project going by the pseudonym of Walter L. Ego, as well as a new group called 27#11. He is known for his musical depth and unique lyrics, as well as his extremely energetic stage presence, once even breaking a leg during a performance. In 1994, he and his band bob hund received a Grammis (the Grammy of the Swedish music industry) for "Best Live Band," and another in 1996 for "Best Lyrics," which Thomas delivers in his native dialect of Skånska, characteristic of the southern Swedish region of Skåne. He was also named Sweden's best singer in 2000. He's infamous for uttering at the Swedish Hultsfred Rock Festival, "Show your ass and we'll rock it off!"
