Anne Linnet Band was a Danish pop rock band with the singers Anne Linnet, Sanne Salomonsen and Lis Sørensen.

Anne Linnet Band was formed in 1979, and recorded the all-time ballad "Det er ikke det du siger" with Sanne Salomonsen on vocals.[2]

Anne Linnet, Sanne Salomonsen and Lis Sørensen all had a successful solo career in the 1980s after Anne Linnet Band dissolved.

Career

[edit | edit source]

Anne Linnet Band began its debut tour on March 27, 1980, at Skråen in Aalborg. The tour was a great success and there were many subsequent concerts.[3] The tour ended on April 12, 1980 in Jazzhus Montmartre. The subsequent tour began in December 1980 in Germany, and involved a concert on the Reeperbahn.[4][5] Anne Linnet's later band Marquis de Sade took some inspiration from this tour at Hamburg's red-light district.[6]

In 1981, Anne Linnet Band's first album of the same name Anne Linnet Band was released, followed by the final album Cha cha cha in 1982.[7] The first album was certified for sales of 100 000 copies in 1982.[8] Anne Linnet's then husband Holger Laumann played saxophone on both albums.

Anne Linnet had stated in the 2018 documentary program Anne, Sanne & Lis that a reunion of Anne Linnet Band would "not be in this life". However, the same documentary program rekindled conversation among the three singers, which ended up convincing them that a tour would be fun and a party for the fans.[9] Even though Anne Linnet Band only existed for a few years in the '80s, they were successful.[10] They went on a reunion tour in May 2019 to perform at five concerts in total across Denmark. At these popular reunion concerts after a 37-year break from Anne Linnet Band, they were still regarded as some of the greatest singers of Denmark from the '80s.[11][12] The sold-out concert at Royal Arena with 15 000 spectators received acclaim in the media.[13]
