　　Tomboy grew up in a small suburb with his family. It was clear from the very beginning that he was anything but ordinary.
　　At the age of 3 he had developed unique skills to decorate cars, guns or any boyish toys with nailpolish, rhine stones and glitter. Skills that would come in handy later on in his life.
　　A diva was born
　　After highscool and the education as a tailor Tomboy started his own company. He worked freelance in the fashion industry as a designer, stylist, hairdresser & makeupartist.
　　At the age of 19 he was lured into the art of dragperformance. A choice that turned out to be a turningpoint in his carreer.
　　Connections in the fashion industry and the world of entertaintment finally lead Tomboy to what seemed to be his destiny in life: To use his voice as a recording artist.
　　At one of his many shows he was spottet by 3 guys who had created the ground stones to the gay concept now known as Tomboy.
　　New songs were written and the concept was developed over a period of 6 years. Costumes were made, hair & makeup designed and finally everything was ready to be released.
　　We proudly present to you:
　　His Majesty the Queen..... TOMBOY.
　　Dear visitor
　　Thanks for visiting my web site!
　　I find that my album has split the world in two, wich means that you`re probably either a TOMBOY-lover or a TOMBOY-hater.
　　Eather way, I would like to share with you my reasons for releasing this album.
　　Since the age of 3 I`ve been discriminated. As a child it was difficult to understand why people spit and threw rocks at you or just beat you up.
　　We all need to feel that we belong somewhere. And for many years I tried to change myself into what I thought every one around me wanted me to be. As you can imagine I was on a "mission impossible" and in my desperate search for respect and acknowledgement I lost my self and everyone around me. At times I even lost the will to live.
　　Later on in life I realized that most people fear what they dont understand and I knew that I had to react, starting with myself.
　　At the age of 18 I began an amazing neverending journey. Working with myself, looking inside, cleaning up and throwing out.
　　Be true to your heart
　　Finding the real me, learning to forgive and love, both myself and others. I realized that the respect and love I so desperatly seeked outside my self in fact had been inside of me all along. Beautiful things started to happen.
　　This album is an expression of my believes and my believes only.
　　It doesnt matter to me if you like my voice or not (as long as you buy the album ;). To me music is not about being the best, but being the best I can be and doing my best. It`s about sharing stories and maybe even getting people to take a stand. It`s about making a difference and having fun at the same time.
　　Music is an art that like all other artforms speaks to us on different levels.
　　I`ve chosen to work with as many clichees as possible, because they are easy to relate to and in my opinion extremely funny. You will also find when you listen to the album, that humour is a very important ingredience. I believe that when people laugh their guards are down and therefore easier to reach. I also believe in the ability to laugh at ourselves.
　　Around the world, hate-crimes against people with different skin colour, religious believes or sexuality happens every day. In some countries they even execute people for being different.
　　Some even claims the right to do it in the name of their God.
　　Being gay it was natural for me to use homosexuality as a theme, but you can relate the lyrics to any minority.
　　Respect for life and the living
　　The album is about respect for our self and others. It`s about accepting the differences between us and losing the fear of the unknown.
　　It`s about letting go of all our limitations and letting our lights shine to erase all darkness. When we do that nothing can prevent us from achieving all the beautiful things life has to offer.
　　I`m not here to say that I represent all gays, nor that all gays are anything remotely like me. I believe that we are all unique individuals.
　　But I will speak up and even shout or scream if I have to. For gays or any minority who are being discriminated.
　　For some people the glass of life is always half full and for some it`s always half empty. But there is no reason to take a piss in the glass just because you`re afraid to drink from it.
　　Remember when you point a finger at others, 3 fingers points right back at you. Therefore I`m asking you to open up your heart, and love will open your mind.
　　LOVE Tomboy
