Björn Adelly was born in Stockholm. His mother, Maud, was a dancer and his father, Georg, was a comedian. His Grandmother and grandfather were artists at the circus. So Björn had showmanship in his genes. But never the less, he never become a professional artist. He became a music teacher in 1974. In 1984 he started a school of preformens art in Alby, south of Stockholm. And finally in 1990 he had worked as a journalist at a local TV-station in Tumba, south of Stockholm.
