Stina Nordenstam born Kristina Marianne Nordenstam March 4, 1969, Stockholm, Sweden, is a Swedish singer-songwriter. Stina's distinctive, breathy voice lead to early comparisons with artists like Rickie Lee Jones and Björk. Her early albums, Memories Of A Colour and And She Closed Her Eyes were significantly jazz-influenced with only subtle elements of alternative rock. With 1997's Dynamite she started down a darker, more experimental path - most of the album was filled with over-processed distorted electric guitars and unusual beats, but careful listening revealed her unique songwriting abilities. An album of covers, People Are Strange, followed before she returned in 2001 with This Is Stina Nordenstam, an album with shorter songs and a more pop-like (but still highly distinctive) feel; ex-Suede vocalist Brett Anderson featured on two tracks.
