1958

Ulf Lundell’s father was Gerhard Lundell a blacksmith worker and mother Ingrid (née Lindström) worked among other things as school meal assistant and seamstress. The family first lived in Stockholm in 1958 but moved to Saltsjö-Boo, east of Stockholm. At the age of ten he got his first guitar. Lundell has an older sister named Inger, whose boyfriend taught him his first chords. During the years 1967–75 Ulf Lundell had a variety of jobs, including postman. During these years he wrote songs and poems which he sent to record labels and publishers.

1974

He sent a demo to MNW which they declined, telling him “the material was not strong enough”. Later he sent two demos to Silence, which were also rejected. When he sent a demo to EMI in October 1974 they wanted to record an LP with him. In 1975 he made his debut with the album Vargmåne (Wolf Moon). The following year, 1976, came his first novel, Jack, with which he made his breakthrough. The novel is about rebellion against “medelsvensson” (Average Joes) circumscribed life in the aftermath of the political uprising at the end of the 1960s. The book had an initial print run of 2,000 copies but ultimately sold 200,000 copies. Meanwhile, when his first work was released, he had already started recording the sequel to Vargmåne. The second album would be called Törst (Thirst) and released just three months after Jack. After that floated on the writing of books and two more were released during the 1970s. Törst was followed by the live album Natten hade varit mild och öm (The night was mild and tender) with Nature as backing band for years. The album Nådens år (Year of Grace) in 1978 year would become his third studio album including a duet with Agnetha Fältskog, “Snön faller och vi med den” (“Snow Falls And We With It”). In 1979 Lundell released his fourth studio album Ripp rapp with songs like “Rom i regnet” and “(Oh la la) Jag vill ha dej”. Ripp rapp was more rock than his previous albums.

1977

Lundell was married the first time in 1977 to Barbro Zackrisson . They broke up in 1988. The year later, 1989, Lundell married Fredrika Stjärne, they broke up in 1991.

During the mid-1990s, he was dating the poet Isabella Nerman (whom he also wrote a song about, simply called “Isabella”). During a period in the 2000s he was living with Ulrika Rickfors.

1982

In the fall of 1980 Lundell released the album Längre inåt landet, which was recorded in England. The album includes songs like “Glad igen” (“Happy Again”) and “Stackars Jack” (“Poor Jack”). The latter was a comment on the criticism Lundell got from his debut novel Jack. Two years later, in 1982, he released the album “Kär och galen” (In love and crazy) that contained his most famous work, the song “Öppna landskap” (“Open landscapes”). It made him one of the biggest artists, and sold four times platinum. Other songs that became popular from Kär och galen was the title track “Kär och galen” and “När jag kysser havet” (“When I kiss the sea”).

1985

While waiting for a proper sequel to Kär och galen Lundell released two records, one in which he interpreted the English songs with Swedish lyrics (Sweethearts) and a completely acoustic album (12 sånger). Ulf wrestled with severe alcohol problems during this time, which among other things, led to the postponing of his upcoming album several times. During the summer tour in 1985, he did a real disastrous gig in Borgholm drunk, which put him on some headlines in the newspapers. In the fall Lundell released Den vassa eggen (The Sharp Edge), an album heavily influenced by the divorce Lundell went through at the time of recording. Den vassa eggen was very critically acclaimed and was followed by yet another scandal tour in the fall of that year. In 1987 Lundell released the only book Lundell acknowledged writing intoxicated, Tårpilen and also the album Det ljuva livet (The Good Life).
