Robyn

Swedish pop diva Robyn began writing songs when she was 11, and was still at school when she launched a music career. Robyn enjoyed instant success with the melodic urban pop track "Do You Really Want Me". Her debut album was re-released in America in 1997, and generated two Top 10 pop hits with "Do You Know (What It Takes)" and "Show Me Love". After refusing to have her follow-up effort, MY TRUTH, re-recorded for the U.S., Robyn retreated to her native Stockholm to regroup. After almost a decade away--an eternity in pop music--Robyn re-appeared, rejuvenated with a set of thrilling electro-pop tunes. The first fruits of her new direction--2006's "The Rakamonie EP"--on her own Konichiwa label led to a licensing deal with V2 Records in the U.K. Her long-awaited third album, ROBYN, was finally released in April 2007.
