Ragnar Zolberg (real name Ragnar Sólberg Rafnsson; born 2 December 1986)〔http://ragnarsolberg.com/ Retrieved 25 June 2011.〕 is an Icelandic singer, guitarist and songwriter of the Icelandic hard rock band Sign where he went by the name Zolberg. In 2011 he joined the Swedish band Pain of Salvation. ==Biography== Ragnar Zolberg was born on 2 December 1986 in Reykjavik, Iceland. When he was 2 years old Ragnar built his first drum kit out of pots and pans from his mothers kitchen. At the age of four he got his first guitar from his grandmother and started playing along to the tunes of Metallica's "Black Album" but smashed his guitar in the heat of the moment soon after as he had seen Jimi Hendrix doing so on TV. At the age of six Ragnar began taking guitar lessons at the Iceland Guitar School but needed new teachers soon because he learned in such acceleration. Ragnar was already writing his own songs at six and his first roadie was his mother as Ragnar insisted on bringing his guitar and drum pads to kindergarten, hoping to start a band with the other guys. His dad, a famous drummer in Iceland, fueled Ragnar's and his brother's enthusiasm by presenting them their first real drum-kit. While his brother turned out to be very skillful on drums and still plays to this day, Ragnar soon found out that playing the guitar was more his thing, but he has still played drums on his two latest albums. Another important moment in Ragnars life: He saved an old "Hustler" magazine from the dumpster which he was very fascinated by but later traded it for the Kiss-movie (Kiss meets the phantom of the park. He watched it almost every day and started dreaming of becoming a rock star one day himself. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ragnar Zolberg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
