Malte Ebert (born in 1994 in Vejle, Denmark), is Danish singer and songwriter formerly known by the moniker Gulddreng, a fictitious character created by Ebert as a reaction to Danish music charts being dominated by what he described as 'bad pop music'. As Gulddreng, he saw his first seven singles all reaching #1 on the Danish Top 40 Tracks chart. Ebert began going by his own name in September 2017, announcing his intention to withdraw the Gulddreng character by February 2018.
