Biography

Greczula was born in the Karlskrona Municipality, where his father was a table tennis player, and grew up in Falkenberg. His grandfather emigrated from Hungary.[1][2] In his youth, Greczula also played table tennis. He trained with the youth national team and won three titles at Swedish youth championships. He eventually gave up training and founded the band Damn Delicious with school friends. The band eventually disbanded and Greczula was subsequently part of the rock band The Felix until 2015.[3]

In 2017, Greczula started releasing his own music under the name Kristofer Greczula. His debut solo album Live and Let Live was released in 2022. Later that year, he participated in the 2022 Allsång på Skansen.[4][5] In 2024, he switched to the stage name Greczula.[6] On 26 November 2024, it was announced that Greczula would participate in Melodifestivalen 2025 with the song "Believe Me".[7] He performed on 15 February 2025 in the third heat and finished first, qualifying directly to the 8 March 2025 final, where he placed third.[8][9][10] He participated in Melodifestivalen 2026 with the song "Half Of Me",[11] and performed in the first heat on 31 January 2026.[12] Greczula went on to win the heat, becoming the first out of 12 to qualify for the 7 March 2026 final in Strawberry Arena in Solna, Stockholm.[13] He placed second in the final.
