April 2020

In April 2020, Omar Rudberg was in a transitional "quiet period" following the release of his single "Dum" and its acoustic version in February. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, most of his scheduled live appearances and public events were on hold.

Key Events & Context

• Post-Single Promotion: After the February release of the Adam Klingeteg photoshoot and the "Dum" acoustic video, Omar spent April primarily engaging with fans via social media from his home in Sweden.
• "Jag e nån annan" Prep: He was working on his next Swedish-language single, "Jag e nån annan," which would eventually be released in the following months.
• The Young Royals Wait: In April 2020, Omar was not yet Simon Eriksson. While he was beginning to explore acting, it wasn't until August 20, 2020, that he officially learned he had been cast in the Netflix series.
• Social Media Interaction: During this month, Omar was active on Instagram and Twitter, often sharing updates about his life in lockdown and teasing new music snippets to keep fans connected during the pandemic.
