Anders Nilsen (musician)

Anders Nilsen (Stavanger, (born June 23, 1988) is a Norwegian songwriter and music producer who has written and produced for R3HAB, Timmy Trumpet, Matoma, and W&W, and currently has 7 #1 singles in his home country Norway.

In 2013 he got a large following on the "Vine" app where he made 6 second songs, which later resulted in him being cast for a SNL like tvshow called "Torsdag Kveld Fra Nydalen".

It was however with his hit "Salsa Tequila", an attempt to write a song in Spanish without actually knowing Spanish (No hablo Español, as he says in the single's lyrics)[1] that he gained fame and an international dance hit that has charted in Norway, Netherlands and Belgium.

Since January 2014, he worked on various TV shows as a writer/performer like Tabu med Abu, Torsdag Kveld Fra Nydalen & Senkveld Med Thomas & Harald. From May 2017 he started focusing full time on writing and producing for other artists.
