“The furthest I can see is me being 60.” — Lukas Forchhammer

Writing is very cathartic for me.

I don't mind Ed Sheeran, but I wouldn't want to be compared to a guy that builds his song around a guitar, since we do not have a guitar in our band.

The songs were there before the band was there, and it's my songs. And it's like, we're not in the 1950s. We can't call ourselves, like, 'The Revolvers' - it just doesn't work that way. And 'The Lukas Graham Band' just sounded wrong.

Graham was my father's second name, so I took Graham because Lukas Graham sounded cool.
