Loma’s family and upbringing – where does she come from?
Lova was born and raised in Stockholm. But according to a question and answer session on the artist’s Instagram, she says that she is half Swedish and half Norwegian.
In an interview with The weekly review Lova describes her upbringing as idyllic.
– I really had a perfect upbringing. My parents have been married for 30 years, I had a lot of friends and music was always around me. My dad’s whole family is very musical so there was always a creativity flowing at home. I started writing songs when I was seven, it became my way of processing emotions, like a kind of diary set to music.
Promise in Lilla Melodifestivalen
When Lova was 14 years old, she entered Lilla Melodifestivalen with the song “Mitt mod”. The song took her all the way to the final where she then won the entire competition.
Lova’s song most played in P3

– It was completely… sick. It was hard to take in. You live all the time in the future and with the next project, it is so rare that you have time to stop and reflect on what is happening in the present. God, it was like the first song, says Lova The weekly review.
Does Lova have ADD?
At the end of junior high school, Lova found out that she had dyslexia and ADD. Getting the news was something that made it easier for her, as she herself had felt it since a young age, she tells Baaam.
– I was overjoyed when I received the news, because it was something I had felt throughout my upbringing and my entire schooling. I felt very stupid. So for me it was also a nice confirmation to get. That I’m not stupid, but that there was actually a logical explanation for why it’s like that and after that I started taking lots of courses about ADD, says Lova to Baaam.
