Klas Bergvall
GUITARIST
“Bad Radiator songs can be described as Toto-influenced friendly hard rock”
Klas’ musical journey began at age 11, when he found a guitar behind the heater in his house in Upplands Väsby (just north of Stockholm). He started his first band when he was 14.
Klas got to know Roger Hansson (drums) when they played together in the hard rock band “Night Arrow”.
With regards to influences, Klas always found energy in bands like Thin Lizzy, Rainbow, Michael Schenker Group, Gary Moore and Scorpions.
“Success is fun, it enabled us to go on tour and play lots of gigs”
— Klas Bergvall
Together with Mikael, Roger, Krister, Jan and Erik they formed the band GRACE in the mid-80s. Klas also made appearances in other famous bands, such as Candlemass, participating on the album “Epicus Domicus Metallics”. When Klas got the call to join Bad Radiator, he felt it would be great to play with the old boys again.
Klas is also a talented artist and one of his paintings is featured on the Bad Radiator album ‘Hypnotize’.
Klas writes his own music on the side and is awaiting the right moment to release a solo album.
