Growing up JP was very into 1990s grunge era music, and still cites that genre of music as being very important to him.
After high school, JP lived in Oslo, Norway with friends, he then moved to Stockholm, Sweden, before moving back to his native Falkenberg (which would lead to the start of Vains of Jenna).

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“In an early spring
We see th’appearing buds, which to prove fruit
Hope gives not so much warrant, as despair
That frosts will bite them.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“For Jeremy, direct, unmediated experience was always hard to take in, always more or less disquieting. Life became safe, things assumed meaning, only when they had been translated into words and confined between the covers of a book.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
