Sanne Salomonsen

Sanne Salomonsen (born Susanne Salomonsen on 30 December 1955) is a Danish singer. She is the daughter of ornithologist Finn Salomonsen. Sanne Salomonsen has been performing since 1961 (with some breaks), and various songs sung or written by her have been on the local charts. Sanne Salomonsen was a member of Anne Linnet Band and Sneakers, and got the nickname Rock Mama as an enduring pop icon in Danish rock music. About the nickname, she thought at age 31 around the time she got it from a journalist: "When I heard that piece of music [from OneTwo], I thought that now, I have become a mom for a generation in rock music." She said in 2011: "I am always asked what I think about being called Rock Mama, but when I look around on the Danish scene then, I can after all clearly see, that if there is a rock mama then, it is me. That is how it is." ()
