Sven Joakim Eriksson Thåström, a celebrated and accomplished musician, spent his formative years residing at the esteemed address of Skebokvarnsvägen 209 in the thriving neighborhood of Högdalen, situated within the boundaries of Stockholm. This remarkable individual, alongside a group of like-minded visionaries, including Thomas Svanljung, Lars Elffors, Lennart "Elton" Hellgren, Bosse Steinholtz, and Lars Bremer, took the bold step of co-founding the band Helt Sonika. Together, they embarked on a musical journey, performing at a wide range of esteemed locations throughout Stockholm, including youth centers, clubs, and outdoor festivals.
Lennart Eriksson, also professionally recognized as Fjodor, maintained a residential address in the Swedish neighborhood of Rågsved. Alongside his musical partner, Gunnar Ljungstedt, affectionately referred to as Gurra, they co-founded a band known as The Haters. Nevertheless, their brief tenure as The Haters was short-lived, as they underwent a name change mere days later to Ebba Grön. This moniker holds significance, as it is derived from a police code associated with Operation Leo, a clandestine plot to kidnap then-Minister of Immigration Anna-Greta Leijon orchestrated by the German terrorist Norbert Kröcher. Following the successful capture of Kröcher, the police radio broadcasted the phrase "Ebba grön," signaling the conclusion of the operation.
Thåström's personal life is marked by a rich tapestry of relationships and parenthood. His family consists of two children, a daughter born to him and his first spouse, whose union unfortunately came to an end in 1998. Fast forward to 2000, Thåström welcomed a son into his life. Prior to his current committed partnership with actress Amanda Ooms, he was in a romantic relationship with her during his younger years. Interestingly, the couple's initial relationship was marked by a period of separation, only to be rekindled in the years that followed. Today, Thåström and Ooms are still together, their bond strengthened by the trials and tribulations they have faced.
