Maja Ivarsson - Biography
Maja Ivarsson, (born 2 October 1979) is a Swedish singer and lead vocalist of the Swedish indie rock band The Sounds.
The Sounds formed in 1998 in Helsingborg, by childhood friends guitarist and vocalist Felix Rodriguez and bassist Johan Bengtsson, who later invited drummer Fredrik Nilsson on board. Maja Ivarsson met the group in high school when the guitarist Felix Rodriguez ended up in the same class. Due to Maja singing at school and her striking appearance Felix then proceeded to invite Maja to join the group under the condition that she would have to sing. Although Maja wasn't keen on singing, she decided to join the band. The last and youngest member to join the band was Jesper Anderberg. The group met Jesper during the Hultsfred Festival by chance and invited him to join.
In March 2011, Ivarsson signed a promotion campaign by American hair care company Sebastian Professional. Earlier fashion-related appearances included the Berlin Fashion Week in January 2011, where The Sounds played during the presentation of a German fashion label.
Ivarsson began playing the French horn at the age of 8 and at 13 she took up the electric guitar. She is also a composer and lyricist, even though most of The Sounds' songs are written by the other band members. Around the age of 8, she took up karate, Thai boxing and kickboxing.
She has six tattoos: a tribal sun on the inside of her left forearm, Modesty Blaise (a 1960s-era British comic book character) on her right outer forearm, three dots between her right thumb and index finger, a sparrow on the right side of her neck, an anchor on her outer left arm, and lip prints on her inner right biceps. The three dot tattoo and anchor tattoo, which symbolize having traveled the seven seas, are in memory of her father who was a sailor.
