Peter LeMarc is a Swedish singer and songwriter.
After enjoying a hugely popular career from 1987 to 1997, and after a hiatus, he enjoyed a comeback starting 2003 onwards with a series of new albums reaching the top of the Swedish Albums Chart.
In addition to a prolific solo career, he also wrote a number of songs for a variety of artists including Anna-Lotta Larsson, Jerry Williams, Totta Näslund, Christina Lindberg and Sven-Ingvars and produced the Eldkvarn album Limbo.
Personal life
He was born Peter Lenn Marc Fransson in Trollhättan, carrying the additional given names Lennart and Marcus . But when he moved to Gothenburg and started recording, it was discovered that there was already an existing singer with Zorry, a rock band, who was called Peter Fransson. So, he adopted the stage name Peter LeMarc instead.His father died early of cancer in 1977. This greatly affected him and he would return to the subject in many of his songs, notably "Jag ska gå hel ur det här", "Närmare gränsen" and "Drivved".
Peter LeMarc has announced that he also has cancer, and performed his last concert at the Stockholm Music & Arts festival in August 2014
