Gustav Lundgren was born in Stockholm 1980. He started to play guitar when he was 12 years old. For the first 3 years of his musical career Jimi Hendrix was his biggest role model. At 15 years of age Gustav began studying at Södra Latin in Stockholm. Södra Latin is a school that has a program for young jazz musicians and many of Sweden's prominent musicians started their careers here. During this period he met some of the most talented young players in Swedish modern jazz such as Jonas Kullhammar, Andreas Öberg, Fredrik Lindborg and Carl Bagge. During this period he listened to guitar players like: Pat Matheny, Max Schultz, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Bireli Lagrene and most of all the great John Schofield.

In November 2001 Gustav founded a brand new project, the Django Reinhardt tribute band called Hot Club de Suede featuring Andreas Öberg & Hampus Lundgren. The group became an immediate success. Gustav toured around Europe for 5 years with HCdS, they also made one tour to the USA with singer Connie Evingson. The group has collaborated with guests-stars like Jimmy Rosenberg (NL), Yorgui Loeffler (FR), Ola Kvernberg (N), Basily (NL), Lars Erstrand, Bengan Janson & Magnus Lindgren (S). They have released three albums, "avec” SJRCD002 (2002) "Hommage a Django" sitcd9309 (2004) & "Stockholm Sweetnin'" (2006) .
