About Lars Falk
Lars Falk was an active member of Twice a Man from 1981 to 1982. He contributed as a composer, lyricist, and performer on their debut album, “Music for Girls” (1982).
In 1983, Falk launched his solo career with the cassette album “Through”. The album was co-produced by Falk alongside Dan Söderqvist and Karl Gasleben, both members of Twice a Man. Included on “Though” was the track “Rainy Days” which displays his style very well.
The “Though” album was followed by the single “TV Eye”/”Doors” in 1985.
His self-titled vinyl album, “Lars Falk”, was released in 1988 through Xenophone International and the German label Yellow. A CD version became available in 1994.
After a period dedicated to creating soundtrack music for the interactive game “Entropia”, Falk returned to his synth-pop roots in 2018, releasing digital singles such as “Dog”, “Can Do Without You”, and “Lullaby for the Few”. In 2023, his 1988 album was remastered and reissued, co-produced with Karl Gasleben of Twice a Man, featuring backing vocals by Tinna Möller of the band Brand.
