BARBARA ALCINDOR was born in PARIS, FRANCE but is resident in LONDON, ENGLAND. The eldest of two children, she is the MOTHER of beautiful daughter LOLITA and recently became engaged to a charming Scottish Architect STEVE.
BARBARA’s career began in the world of fashion as a model before finding her niche as a singer. She teamed up German producers DREYER BROTHERS and found great success in GERMAN/FRENCH pop band ‘FRENCH AFFAIR’ as the lead singer. Inspired by BARBARA’s remake of NANCY SINATRA "These boots were made for walking", ‘FRENCH AFFAIR’ were then signed by RCA/ARISTA-BMG record label. They scored a pair of sizable hit singles in 2000 with ‘MY HEART GOES BOOM’, ‘POISON’ and ‘DO WHAT YOU WANT’ - making the charts in FRANCE, UK, ITALY and GERMANY. In 2001, we saw the release of ‘French Affair's’ debut full-length album entitled ‘Desire’, sold more than 8 million in 45 countries, followed by the release of SEXY and COMME CI COMME 2004.
Since leaving ‘FRENCH AFFAIR’, BARBARA has been busy concentrating on her solo career and working with 10KILO on the album FASCINATION track FASCINATION mix by LARRY TEE. GROOVE ARMADA on I SEE YOU BABY, SHAKIN THAT ASS performed live on GMTV, TOP OF THE POP’s and CD UK and a track called ‘COME TOGETHER’. DAN BERKSON and JAMES WATTS on If I WAS A MAN track signed to POCKER FLAT RECORD Germany. GILES SMITH featuring BARBARA ALCINDOR and the TWO ARMADILLOS for the JE SUIS DIFFERENT track on SHLUM RECORD company Agnes. TERRY HART and SMOKIN JOE for NUDE @Ministry of Sound. KING ROC single ‘BEAUTIFUL BUT WEIRD on his NEW album CHAPTERS on PROCESS RECORD Germany.
KING ROC FEATURING BARBARA ALCINDOR was released 24 August 2009, remixed by FINLAND’S SASSE, CLOUDED VISION, ALEX CAYTAS & ALEKS PATZ, GREECE'S STEL, and KING ROC’S own warm deep-house remix as JERICO DUB. The second set, out some weeks later, will include a CLOUDED VISION remix that's wonderfully unlike the original, and KING ROC’S own dance floor-centric mix.

"Love all the mixes, with SASSE giving us a blinder" – NICK WARREN
“With a vox sounding a lot like Madonna. I wish the SASSE mix was more Dubby or there was a SASSE dub, The JERICO DUB mix is one I would support more and STEL does well with a bigger soundin version too.” – CHRIS FORTIER
