Lars Hollmer, a Swedish accordionist, keyboardist and composer, was born in 1948.
He starts playing music in 1956 with several different friends. In 1969-70 he forms his own recording studio 'The Chickenhouse' outside Uppsala (Sweden) where he formates Samla Mammas Manna (a.k.a. Samla) - with an output of four albums from 1971 - 1975.
In the years around 1974 Samla write songs for swedish theatre productions. In 1977 Samla change their name into Zamla Mammaz Manna (a.k.a Zamla), later on known as Von Zamla. In 1984 the group plays their last concert in Germany and splits up after.
Lars Hollmer continues on his own solo albums and releases ten solo albums from 1981 until 2007.
Since 1996 a project called Accordion Tribe (Guy Klucevsek, Maria Kalaniemi, Bratko Bibic, Lars Hollmer and Otto Lechner) combines the use of the accordion in different musical contexts.

Hey Lars Hollmer,
Lars musik kommer alltid att vara en av mina största inspirationskällor! Spännande arrangemang, vild blandning av stilar, ofta mkt dansanta och medryckande kompositioner.
I just got a note that said, "Lars Hollmer is your friend." Sadly beautiful.
Our Accordion Noir radio show will feature Lars' music next friday (Jan 16.) If anyone has good accordion works with his earlier rock bands, I'd love to include them. Thanks for your help!
Its a sad moment to make friend. Lars, we will miss you a lot. Thanks for your wonderful music and your true and honest personality, you were. We will never forget you. Love Christian
