Gulddreng

Malte Fynboe Manniche Ebert, better known by his former nickname Gulddreng, is a Danish musician. His identity was unknown until the father of his host family from an exchange trip announced his name on Facebook.[1] His name translates to "gold boy" or "golden boy" in English.[1] As Gulddreng, Ebert was known for always wearing sunglasses,[1] which helped to obscure his identity. His first seven singles, "Model", "Se mig nu", "Hva' så", "Drikker for lidt", "Nemt", "Guld jul" and "Ked af det", all peaked at number 1 in Denmark, with "Se mig nu", "Drikker for lidt", "Guld jul" and "Ked af det" debuting at the top spot.[2]

In May 2019 he played his first concert in Vega. In 2019 he also went to Los Angeles to make songs with more internationl sound.[5]
