Biography

Singer and songwriter Robin Miriam Carlsson, performing under the pseudonym Robyn, was born in the capital of Sweden in 1979. She has been concerned with the music since her very childhood, and at the age of twelve Robyn recorded a leading song for one of the Swedish TV series, and she performed her own song at the show Sondagsoppet. A bit later Robyn was noticed by Meja, and the latter informed her manager about the talented young singer. Thereby, Robyn’s professional musical career started right after she graduated from the middle school and signed the contract with Ricochet Records Sweden.

At the age of sixteen, Robyn released her debut single You've Got That Somethin' (1994). The same year she issued another single Do You Really Want Me (Show Respect) (1994), which attracted attention to the singer. The song brought Robyn popularity and also that composition peaked at number two at Swedish Chart. Later these tracks were included into Robyn’s debut album Robyn Is Here. It was released in 1996 and turned out to be successful: by 1998 it was certified Platinum. Compositions Show Me Love and Do You Know (What It Takes) were well received in the US and the singer started to gain popularity there. She was invited to the TV show All That to sing her hit Show Me Love.

In 1999 Robyn released her second studio album titled My Truth. It debuted at the second place of Swedish Chart and the song Electric became a real hit in Europe. My Truth is an autobiographic album: many compositions, such as Universal Woman and Giving You Back describe some certain periods of the singer’s life. Her next record titled Don't Stop the Music was released in 2002. Keep This Fire Burning and Don't Stop The Music became hits in no time and later several cover-versions were made. Only a year after the release, Don't Stop the Music proved its level and it was certified Platinum. In 2005 the singer issued her new album titled Robyn. It was recorded on her own label Konichiwa Records, created in 2005 as well. She surprised her fans with absolutely new sound, including elements of electronic dance music. That album was well received by the musical experts and later it got the Platinum status.

In 2010 Robyn released the first part of her trilogy called Body Talk. The album Body Talk Pt. 1 got fair reviews and the critics already called this project very strong and ambitious. The talented Swedish singer finds new ways of music creation and keeps on developing. Body Talk Pt. 1 is just a beginning of a new stage of her creativity. There is no doubt that fresh sound of Robyn’s new album will bring positive emotions to all the music lovers. Soon after that the continuation of Body Talk Pt. 1, which got quite the logical title Body Talk Pt. 2 (2010), was released. The record proved to be a development of ideas that had been presented by the singer in the first part of her trilogy. The latter’s final third element Body Talk also saw the light in 2010. Robyn’s ambitious project turned out to be solid and very well worked out, thereby numerous critics agreed that Body Talk was really astonishing.
