Johan Becker

Johan Becker is a singer and songwriter based out of Stockholm, Sweden. He was born in Helsinki 1971 and lived in Finland until 1997. At the age of 7 Johan got his first drum kit which led to a childhood-teen career as a drummer in different bands. He won a national talent contest for his skills behind the drums when he was 13 years old. While he had always been able to sing it wasn´t until he was 19 that he became a member of his first rock band, as the lead singer. Spending a year in the US as an exchange student further broadened Johan's experience as a musician. He learned how to play the guitar, which has proven to be useful in writing songs. Anxious to develop his songwriting skills, Johan invested in a home studio. After that, the next 5 years was spent developing his skills as a singer/songwriter, as well as doing gigs and going to university. His investment finally paid off, when his songs and demos captured the interests of publishing companies in Stockholm. Seizing the opportunity, Johan signed a publishing deal with Universal in 1998. Johan has written songs for acts such as A-teens, Popstars, Starsearch, Peter Jöback, Fame Factory Academy, Kim Sanders, Nicole Lacy. Johan also wrote and sang the song “She's a mystery to me” in the US movie “THE LONG SHOT” He became famous in the reality show "Fame Factory" in 2003. Since then he has been involved in other projects such as [a=The Wallstones] and [a=Star Pilots], as well as pursuing a solo career as [a=Bekker]. Joined Secret Service in 2018.
