Karin Ström was born in Kristianstad, a small town in the south of Sweden. She always wanted to be a singer. At the age of 13 she started writing her first songs and dreamed about being the new Eva Dahlgren, a loved and respected Swedish singer/songwriter. But she kept it secret. 20 years old she moved to London, where she got signed to the Canadian record label Nettwerk which led her to relocate to Los Angeles. Here, she released a self titled five track EP (US, Canada, UK and Sweden) with lyrics in English. Then she got dropped and returned to Sweden and settled in Stockholm.
Back in Stockholm she wrote, produced and recorded the EP "Sneda Ögons EP" in the autumn of 2005, and released it on her own label Datadamen Records. Datadamen (originally Karin's DJ name) means Computer Lady, and this marked a change of Karin's sound from organic and guitarbased to electronic and computerized. She also switched languages and now sings in Swedish. The 24th of January 2007 Karin released her first full length album "En saga om en sten" - available on
www.klicktrack.com and
on
iTunes. Physical copies are available in good record shops and via
cdon.com,
or for non-Europeans via
www.swedishmusicshop.com.
In June 2007, the album "Ny musik för landssorg" (New Music For National Grief & Mourning) was released, where Karin participates with the song Ordlös (Wordless). The album is available on Dotshop. A review of the album in Dagens Nyheter can be found here.
In February 2008, Karin released the single Silent Night as part of the Absolut Vodka campaign In An Absolute World. The campaign can be watched at www.absolut.com.
In October 2008, Karin started working on her second album.
