Anton's Music Journey
Starting as a Dancer
Anton started his journey as a dancer at Melodifestivalen, a big music contest in Sweden. In Melodifestivalen 2009, he danced for the singer Velvet when she performed her song "The Queen". Later, in Melodifestivalen 2012, he was a dancer and even helped create the dance moves for Danny Saucedo's song "Amazing". He also choreographed a performance for Andreas Lundstedt that same year.
First Time as a Singer at Melodifestivalen
Anton decided to compete as a singer in Melodifestivalen 2013. His song was called "Begging". After his first performance, he came in third place. This gave him a second chance to qualify for the final. Anton even created all the dance moves for his own performance!
At the "Second Chance" round, he won his duel against another artist and made it to the grand final. In the final of Melodifestivalen 2013, Anton finished in fourth place. After the contest, he released two songs, "Begging" and "Can't Hold Back". He also released two mini-albums called A and A-coustic.
