"Jose Gonzalez is a Swedish indie/folk singer-songwriter. Gonzalez was born in Sweden to Argentine parents in 1978. In 2003, he released his debut album, Veneer, in Europe. The album has since been released in the UK, on 25 April 2005, and on 6 September 2005 in the United States. His trademark sound is solo classical guitar with soft melody. His work, although mostly original, does include acoustic covers of such hits as 'Heartbeats' by his fellow Swedes The Knife, 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' by Joy Division, 'Born in the U.S.A.' and 'The Ghost of Tom Joad' by Bruce Springsteen, 'Hand On Your Heart' by Kylie Minogue, 'Smalltown Boy' by Bronski Beat and 'Teardrop' by Massive Attack.

Gonzalez also plays in the band Junip with Tobias Winterkorn and Elias Araya. Junip has released a sole EP, Black Refuge. Recently, he has collaborated with UK downtempo duo Zero 7 on their album, The Garden, where he provides guest vocals on the album's tracks, along with Zero 7 regular Sia Furler. This album features four songs with Gonzalez on vocals, namely 'Futures', 'Left Behind', 'Today' and 'Crosses', which is a cover of his own song 'Crosses' from his album Veneer. He has also collaborated with the Swedish hip hop DJ and producer Embee on the track 'Send Someone Away'."
