Music City Make-A-Thon 2026
The Leftovers
Everyone Got a Punk Heart
I’m a creator from Sweden and the founder of The Leftovers. I don’t come from a music background. The project started with writing. After losing a close friend eight years ago, I began writing a private manuscript as a way to deal with grief. It was never meant to become music. At some point, a fictional band called The Leftovers appeared in the story. I became curious about how they would sound and started experimenting with AI music tools. The book slowly stopped. The band didn’t. Today, I write the lyrics, shape the concept, and lead the creative direction. I work between storytelling, identity and new creative tools. I use AI as an amplifier — not to replace human intention, but to strengthen it. My focus is building a human-first music project that explores authorship, process and imperfection in a time where generative tools are becoming part of creativity.
