The AGM is primarily an analogue studio with much vintage equipment and two live echo chambers.[2] Since its start in 1998, the AGM has hosted a vast selection of both Swedish and international artists like Roxette, Per Gessle, Ed Harcourt, Ulf Lundell, Gyllene Tider, Thåström, Bo Sundström, Wilmer X, Christian Kjellvander, Helena Josefsson, Sandy Mouche, Peter von Poehl, Edda Magnason, and Moneybrother.[3]
In May 2011, Lundquist released his debut solo album, Through the Window,[4] which reached #29 on the Swedish album chart.[5] All the songs on the album were co-written with songwriter Michael Saxell.[6] Also in May, Lundquist was the first person ever to be awarded the Sir George Martin Award at a gala event in Malmö, Sweden. The award came with SEK100,000.[7]
