Espen Lind Biography
Espen Lind is a Norwegian songwriter, singer, record producer and multi-instrumentalist born on May 13, 1971 in Tromsø, Norway. He is also a mentor on the Norwegian version of The Voice.
A Spellemannprisen-winning Norwegian pop artist who dazzled his homeland with his second album, 1997’s Red, Espen Lind also found success in the United States as a co-writer behind singles like Beyoncé’s 2007 smash hit “Irreplaceable.” Lind broke into the Norwegian pop scene in 1995 performing under the name Sway. His debut album, Mmm…Prepare to Be Swayed, sold poorly but garnered rave reviews from the Norwegian music press, which was enough to earn Lind a recording deal with Universal.
Billing himself under his given name, Lind returned two years later with the lovelorn jangle rock single “When Susannah Cries.” The track shot to number one on the Norwegian charts, and made its way into the Top Five throughout Europe and Latin America. Lind’s second full-length album, Red, emerged soon after; the release sold over 600,000 copies worldwide and earned Lind a Spellemannprisen (Norwegian Grammy) for Artist of the Year. Red’s success proved to be a tough act to follow; Lind’s third effort, This Is Pop Music, failed to sell as well as its predecessor, and it was four years before he released another album (2005’s April).
Music Career
Espen released his first album, ‘Mmm’ in 1995 which was only released in his native country of Norway. His greatest success was in 1997 with the single ‘When Susannah Cries’ which was a hit in several countries. His second album was ‘Red’ which was also a success and in the year 2000 he released his third album, ‘This Is Pop Music’, and the singles “Black Sunday” and “Life Is Good”.
Lind has won several awards including three Norwegian Grammy awards (Spellemannprisen) in 1998, including Artist of the Year. He also received the award “Årets Spelleman” (artist of the year) at the Norwegian Grammy Awards in January 2009.
