Mathias Beckius - Keyboards

Born and raised in a dull town called Karlskoga, in the middle of Sweden. After 24 years Mathias decided to search for glory and fame in the southern parts of Sweden. He thought that Malmö would be good enough in his quest for a richer life! First he lived in Landskrona, about 40-50 km from Malmö, but that's another history...

In December 2005 he started to play in a group that were very much in to the British rock/pop genre. But that didn't last too long. Mathias got frustrated of being reduced to only play so-simple-as-possible synth pads and generate noises.

Sometime in the middle of February 2006 he started to search for another band. Fortunately a band called TP3, which claimed to play interesting and experimental rock, were looking for a keyboard player at the same time. After a rather good audition the 28th of February he was accepted as the new keyboard player, to fill up the void after the talented Martin Nilsson.

Mathias is a self-taught synthesizer geek. He loves vintage keyboard sounds and he's unofficially married to his Solina string machine. He can also be described as a really stubborn, but nice guy with a really weird sense of humour.
