The Famous Female Swedish Singer

By Irma Farrell


Sweden is just like most countries wherein they have been known to produce many artists and musicians. A considerable number of these people have become famous not only in their native land, but also throughout the world. The female Swedish female singer is someone who is talented and can bring that talent across national boundaries unlike any other. The examples can be quite convincing.

One of these women is Theresa Andersson. Andersson was born in the year 1972 in Gotland, Sweden and is a singer, a songwriter as well as a multi instrumentalist. She once posted a do it yourself video for Na Na Na, which is one of her songs, and it has since become quite popular on YouTube with more than a million views.

Another example is Miss Li. Li, whose real name is Linda Carlsson, is a famous musician whose single was featured on a series on Showtime called Weeds. Other than that, there was the utilization of Bourgeois Shangri La, another one her of songs, in a commercial for the iPod Nano commercial.

A very old school name is Git Gay, who was among the most popular in her hay day. Her real name was Birgit Carp and history will remember her as a successful actress, director and vocalist. It all started when she was sent to the Music Conservatory. This was in Malmo and the reason for her being there was due to the ambition of her parents to develop her into a concerto pianist.

By the forties, she was invited to act in a summer revue as a prima donna by a director named Sigge Holmberg. By the following year, she was performing at the Grona Lund in Stockholm in Klart Gronan, another revue. The rest, as they say, is history. Her career continued well into the nineties where she transitioned towards senior TV presenting. Git Gay passed away a mere eleven days before she would have turned eighty six in the year 2007.

Clara Hagman is a member of the pop band Ace of Base. She was recruited to replace departing band members at the age of just eighteen years old. After her inclusion into the band, the new line up released its new album sometime in September 2010.

Among the most famous and successful singers during the nineteenth century went by the name of Jenny Lind. Lind, or Johanna Maria Lind, was renowned as the Swedish Nightingale. Her considerable prowess in opera singing made her famous during her performance of Der Freischutz. It all almost came to a screeching halt though when she was plagued by vocal damage.

Even the Finnish metal band Nightwish is being fronted by a woman from Sweden. Annette Ingegerd Olsson, known as Anette Olzon, her stage name, is the second lead vocalist. She also happened to work with the band Alyson Avenue in the past.

There are many more examples to cite from a very diverse pool of talent. The definition of a Swedish female singer is one that is changing with the times. With each new innovation and achievement, they, as a whole, elevate themselves just a little bit higher than they were before. They are a point of pride for their nation, and their talents will see to it that the world will see things that way as well.
