It's been 16 years since he last released an album, but Carl-Johan Vallgren is now back as a musician - and with a novel that touches on music.

"In a way, the album may be the soundtrack to the book, but it could also be the exact opposite," he says in a press release.

The novel "Love" and the album "Kaddish" will both be released on October 16. They are based on the grief after the passing of Vallgren's wife in 2023.

When, in the midst of the storm, he was unable to write a sequel to 2024's "Din tid kommer," he picked up the guitar for the first time in a long time and began writing melodies. In parallel, a novel on the same theme developed.

In conjunction with the album release, the singer is also going on tour, with a premiere in Nyköping on October 17.
