INTERVIEW WITH SWEDISH KEYBOARDIST, MATTIAS ROOS

Hot on the heels of his My Story release, Swedish keyboard player Mattias Roos is all set to make his Skytown Records debut with Movin’ Up, a tight ten-track collection that he writes, arranges and produces throughout.  As such it is a glittering showcase for his multiplicity of talents and sure to attract the kind of critical acclaim. Roos first enjoyed in 2016 with the runaway hit single Masterpiece.  As well as being a solo artist and a go-to keyboard player for a number of top-flight Swedish performers, Roos is also a founding member of the band Soweco that he formed with drummer Peter Gustavsson in 2011.  Soweco is well known for fusing smooth jazz grooves with an old school vibe and in Movin’ Up” Roos has found the perfect vehicle to transfer all of this into his solo performances while still retaining an identity that is very much his own. Movin’ Up will be released June 12 with the 1st single Movin’ Up (feat. U-Nam).
