Lars Winnerbäck (born Lars Mattias Winnerbäck in Stockholm on 19 October 1975 ), commonly known as Lasse, is a Swedish singer and songwriter.
Winnerbäck started off with a folk-pop sound, releasing his first album, "Dans med svåra steg" in 1996. In the late 90s, his sound moved towards rock. More recently, he has moved towards a more acoustic style.
The influence of songwriters like Carl Michael Bellman, Evert Taube and Cornelis Vreeswijk shine through in Winnerbäck's exclusively Swedish lyrics, which attack everyday shallowness, prejudice in society, and hypocrisy in religion, as well as dealing with romance, relations and anxiety. Several of his songs depict the difference between living in medium-size Linköping and metropolitan Stockholm. Read more on Last.fm.
