Hot Video Alert: Ulrik Munther - Moments Ago


17-year Ulrik Munther has been called Sweden's answer to Justin Bieber, due mainly to his immense talent and young age. While I definitely see the similarities, Munther appears to posses a certain innocence that Justin Bieber lacks. In addition to being a gifted singer/songwriter, this multi-talented musician plays both the guitar and the harp.  While I think that the Bieber comparisons are flattering, Munther is absolutely his own artist, and a talented one at that.

At the age of 17, Munther is already a bonafied YouTube phenomenon, with over 5 million views on YouTube following the release of his debut single "Boys Don't Cry" and his fabulous cover of Lady Gaga's "Born This Way." "Moments Ago," released June 17th in Sweden, is Munther's latest single taken from his forthcoming debut album, due out August 24th via Universal Music Sweden. Check out the video that Munther made for his song "Moments Ago" while visiting record companies in LA earlier this year. You can download the new single on Swedish iTunes HERE, including an acoustic version of the track.

Hot Video Alert: Ulrik Munther - Born This Way (Live Lady Gaga Cover)


Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" hasn't even been out a week yet and it's already being covered. Not too shocked I guess. The song has a very powerful message which SHOULD be spread. The latest artist to cover Gaga's new single is Sweden's Ulrik Munther. The Universal Music recording artist has recorded a beautiful acoustic version of the single, showcasing his talent as both a singer and guitarist.

Starting out as a YouTube sensation, Ulrik Munther has received over 1 million views and has since released his debut single, "Boys Don't Cry" which has over 200,000 views to date. Munther is currently at work on his debut record, which he is writing and producing along with Johan Åberg. Check out the video for "Boys Don't Cry" HERE and watch Munther's version of "Born This Way" below. "Born This Way" was written by Lady Gaga and is the first single lifted off of her forthcoming album of the same name. Download Gaga's version HERE.

Hot Video Alert: Ulrik Munther - Boys Don't Cry


Ulrik Munther is a 16 year singer/songwriter hailing from Gothenburg Sweden. Like many artists today, Munther caught a HUGE break on YouTube which ultimately lead to a record deal with Universal Music. With over a million hits on YouTube before being signed, it was only a matter of time before a major label or two would be calling him on the phone. Now in the middle of recording his debut album, Munther is set to release his debut single, "Boys Don't Cry" in January. The song first appeared on YouTube as a demo, prompting a mass scramble from major labels in both the U.S. and Britain. Ulrik quickly became a 16 year old jetsetter, flying to Los Angeles, New York, London and all over Europe at the behest of said record labels. What an experience that must have been!

Looks like all of the attention finally turned into something for this talented young musician. In addition to singing, Munther plays the piano, drums, guitar and harmonica - and not only that be he also writes and produces his own stuff, with a little help from Johan Åberg. Check out the video (BELOW) which was shot in LA and Munther's hometown of Gothenburg. There's something really listenable about young Munther's voice. It's not perfect and sometimes sounds a bit strained but I think that's part of what makes him so appealing. It's the imperfections that make him so real and raw. The emotionally-charged pop/rock ballad is the perfect introductory song for this promising new artist. Looking forward to hearing more in the coming year.  Listen to "Boys Don't Cry" in full below.
