Who is Erik Linder?

Erik will perform a modern folk song called

'Hur kan jag tro på kärlek'

He is a new artist who had his debut album out just last year

for this album he covers classic swedish songs from the likes of

Marie Fredrikkson

Kent, and even Eva Dahlgren's classic 'Angeln i Rummet'

He became a finalist in the Tv show Talang 2009.

He has been called a young -Ted Gardestad, and does a version of

'För kärlekens skull' on his album, as well as Ted's songwriting brother

Kenneth had a hand in writing this melodifestivalen entry. Erik is 190 cm tall

and if there will be a swedish song at Globen in 2010, this is the best qualifier. He's up against

Darin & Alcazar so Erik may have to get there from the second chance round.
