Sanne Salomonsen's breakthrough came in 1980 when she joined the rock band Sneakers. The band released four albums before disbanding in 1985. Concurrently, she was a member of Anne Linnet Band from 1979-1982. Nonetheless, her solo career didn't take flight until 1985, when she released her third solo album. Most of the albums she would release in the following 20 years would be in English, though some - Ingen engel, Sanne, and 1996 - were domestically released in Danish, with English-language counterparts released internationally.
Following a massive stroke in May 2006, which left her left side temporarily paralysed, Sanne Salomonsen took a hiatus from performing, which ended up lasting almost three years. In 2009, she announced her comeback and released her 11th solo studio album, Unico, which was also her first Danish-language album in 13 years. Its lead single, "Taxa", was a major success, becoming one of Salomonsen's biggest hits to date.
Her latter-day output includes the Danish-language studio albums Tiden brænder (2011) and Baby Blue (2017), as well as the retrospective album Hjem 2014, which features stripped-down re-recordings of select songs from her back catalogue.
In 2017, Sanne Salomonsen was announced as a new judge on the Danish version of The X Factor. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
