Lars-Eric Mattsson was discovered in 1985 by
Mike Varney, and was
eventually given the opportunity to record a four-track EP. In 1988
Mattson released his debut album, Eternity.
Having released a couple
of solo albums, he formed the band Vision, whose 1992 eponymous debut
album would be quite successful, primarily in Japan. Recordings for a
follow-up album were scrapped as the band split up. Mattsson joined
forces with Baltimoore singer Björn Lodin in Astral Groove, who released
their first and only album in 1995.
Vision reformed in 1996 and
recorded the album Till the End of Time. After this, Mattsson decided to
record his first solo album since 1991. The result was 1998's
Obsession, which also featured Lodin on vocals.
The follow-up album,
Another Dimension, was released in 2000 under the Mattsson moniker. He
has since released several solo albums, as well as a studio album with
Vision (On the Edge (2004)).
In addition to releasing solo albums
and working with Vision, Mattsson has also released albums with
Condition Red (featuring, among others, Derek Sherinian) and Book of
Reflections, and he has also made numerous guest appearances and tribute
albums.
Mattsson also runs his own record label, Lion Music, on which he releases most of his albums.
