Lifelong friendship - 15 years with Simplyfive

Since its inception in 2011, the quintet has toured extensively through Sweden, collaborated with choirs and orchestras, and participated together with The King's Singers at a concert in Uppsala Cathedral. The group also regularly arranges its own concerts, especially through the group's popular concert concept In the World of Fairy Tales. In 2017, the group was awarded the Kaggen Scholarship, instituted by the Orphei Drängar Singing Society (OD) and in 2023 they received the Friends of the House of Music, established by the Friends of the House of Music, Uppsala.
