Brännström attended Adolf Fredrik's Music School in Stockholm.[1] In 1970, he gained fame alongside Magnus Härenstam and Lasse Hallström, when they made their first television program Oj är det redan fredag. During the 1980s, Brännström managed Maximteatern in Stockholm with Magnus Härenstam, Lill Lindfors, and Aller Johansson, in a company called Limabrall.
