Sandro Cavazza

Alessandro Michele "Sandro" Cavazza is a Swedish singer-songwriter of Italian origin. Besides his solo career he was also a member of the pop group Estraden.
He names his musical influences as Eagle-Eye Cherry, Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Westlife, ABBA, Max Martin, Bon Iver and Queen, in particular Freddie Mercury.
Cavazza is well known as a good friend of the Swedish producer Avicii. They made two songs together for Avicii's album Stories. Cavazza is also featured on "Without You" which was nominated for a Grammis in 2017. During a road-trip through America, Avicii and Cavazza wrote multiple songs together. After Avicii's death in 2018, only "Forever Yours" was released in 2020, after it was finished by Norwegian producer and DJ Kygo.
Despite his intention to retire as a performer after that, he has since featured on songs by other artists, including "All for Love" by Felix Jaehn, "Fade Away" from Kygo's fifth album Kygo and “Young Again” by Don Diablo

Personal life

In an interview in June 2018, Cavazza described his background as "very Swedish and part Italian", consisting of Sunday dinners with his Italian family partnered with a very secure social system in Sweden. This allowed him the opportunity to attend music school. On 23 November 2021, Cavazza announced his intention to "end his career" as an artist, claiming the reasons to be that "some things like social media, competition and being at the center of attention do not make me happy". He intended to solely focus on his career as a songwriter and held one final concert in Stockholm in 2022.
