Official biography
Goran Bror Benny Andersson was born 16th December 1946 in Stockholm, and was raised in the suburb of Vdllingby. Music entered Benny's life when he was very young. At the age of six he got his first accordion, and started playing together with his father Gvsta and his grandfather Efraim.When Benny was ten years old, he got his first piano, and started taking lessons. That did not last very long, though, and it is fair to say that Benny is a completely self-taught musician.
