AlternativeAbout
Project Isolar was created as a platform for all creativity by Gert-Inge Nilsson (b.1971) born and raised in Sweden. At a very early age Gert-Inge Nilsson began singing in the children's choir at a local church at age of six. Private singing lessons began at age of eight. Gert-Inge is trained in classical music singing both opera and German lieder and is a tenor. In 1994 Gert-Inge joined fellow musicians Bengt Rosberg and Peter Hallbäck to form a prog rock band called Domino. The band members began to go separate ways musically a few years later. It was then when Gert-Inge had joined a theater (1997) for a leading role, he began to write his own music to the play "Mans kvinna" by famous swedish writer Vilhelm Moberg performed by Kullateatern in Höganäs.
Gert-Inge choosed to study and got a degree in social psychology and social work and has since 2005 worked as a social worker in Sweden. The love for the music and the need to express himself in a creative way has always been there along with studies and work. Gert-Inge decided to call himself Project Isolar when he wrote music. Project Isolar is in a way Gert-Inge´s inner journey for the love of music, expressing emotions both the joyful and the dark side of man. Somehow the music reflects the people he has met trough work who have been on the rand of despair. His own journey is well described in the music and as well in the art he performs. The spiritual journey Gert-Inge has done the last ten years has resulted in him becoming a Reiki therapeut.
Project Isolar is inspired by several great musicians. Among those are David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Daft punk, Röyksopp, Orbital and Future sound of London. In fact Isolar was also the name of the 1978 tour by David Bowie.
