Uno was born and raised in Västerbotten, in the rural parts of northern
Sweden. When he was a small child, his parents took note of his talent for music
and made him take organ classes in the nearest town. As a teenager,
having moved to a larger town, he played in bands and came to realise that he
wanted to pursue music as his profession. He studied music in upper secondary
school and continued with a number of preparatory courses
before being accepted into Royal College of Music in Stockholm in the fall of
2002.
During his collage years, he came into contact with Johan Söderqvist, one of
the most prominent composers of film music in the Nordics. After graduating, Uno
started working as Söderqvist’s assistant on films like “Let
the Right One In”, “Kon-Tiki” and “Limbo”. Their
cooperation matured into a partnership that has resulted in acclaimed
productions like the TV series “The Bridge” and “Departement
Q” I & II.
Uno got his own international breakthrough with his music for the Danish
documentary “Armadillo” in 2010. Since then he has been frequently
engaged to compose music for TV and cinema all around the world.
