Career

Liljegren is best known as the lead vocalist and primary lyricist for the Christian melodic power metal band Narnia. He is also the frontman of the metal bands Audiovision, Divinefire, Flagship and Wisdom Call.

Liljegren owns the Liljegren Records label which features bands such as Divinefire, Crimson Moonlight, Sanctifica, Grimmark, Harmony, Veni Domine and Majestic Vanguard.

In April 2008, Christian announced his departure from Narnia. There was no controversy among the band members; Liljegren said he had to give his body rest. In 2014, he returned to Narnia.

Liljegren is the lead vocalist of the power metal project Golden Resurrection with ReinXeed's lead guitarist Tommy Johansson (now in Sabaton). Their debut album was released in November 2010.

Personal life

He changed his last name to Rivel by choosing to take his wife's last name when they were married. After their divorce in 2008, he changed his name back to Liljegren.

Lilijegren is brothers with Hubertus Lilijegren, guitarist and vocalist for bands such as Crimson Moonlight, Pantokrator and Sanctifica.
