Timeline

1977

Anne Lilia Berge Strand (born 21 November 1977), known professionally as Annie, is a Norwegian singer, songwriter, record producer and DJ.

1997

Annie attended secondary school until around 1997, when she began to DJ around Bergen, getting acquainted with members of the Bergen music scene.

During this time she met producer Mikal Tellé, owner of the Bergen-based Tellé record label, and Norwegian house producer Tore Andreas Kroknes, known professionally as DJ Erot.

Annie and Kroknes became romantically involved, and began to collaborate musically.

Annie's talent for writing melodies and vocals worked well with Kroknes's production skills.

1999

She began her recording career in 1999 with the underground hit single "The Greatest Hit" and gained international acclaim, particularly from music bloggers, for her debut album Anniemal (2004).

After completing secondary school, Annie started DJing in Bergen, where she met house producer and soon-to-be boyfriend Tore Kroknes.

In 1999, Annie and Kroknes released the single "The Greatest Hit", which sold out in two days and became popular in Norwegian and British nightclubs.

Annie launched her solo singing career in 1999 with the single "Greatest Hit".

The song was recorded after Annie played Madonna's song "Everybody" for Kroknes, who was experiencing a creative block at the time.

Kroknes sampled the song, and Annie started to sing a melody to it.

They recorded and released the song under the Tellé label.

The song saw a limited release of 500 7-inch singles, which sold out in two days.

"Greatest Hit" became an underground club hit in Norway and the United Kingdom, and Annie received offers for record contracts.

Annie reflects that she and Kroknes had recorded the song "for fun", but with the success of the single, Annie says, "I realized that I could actually make a living out of this."

2000

Annie and Kroknes made plans to release an album and began recording "I Will Get On" in 2000.

However, Kroknes, who was born with a degenerative heart condition, fell ill near the end of 2000 and was hospitalized repeatedly.

2001

Before Annie and Kroknes could release an album, Kroknes died from a congenital heart defect in 2001.

In April 2001, Kroknes died of complications from his heart condition at the age of 23.

Annie told Clubbing Magazine:

"After that, I was so depressed I just wasn't able to do anything. I stayed at home, away from everyone, completely in my own world. I wanted to make the album with Tore—that was the plan. After he died I just didn't think I had the heart. But then I thought, 'Right, you're really depressed now but you have to make this album. Tore would be quite pissed off if you just stopped doing anything.'"

After a hiatus from music, Annie returned to DJing and songwriting in late 2001, running a club night called Pop Till You Drop at the Agora nightclub in Bergen with DJ friend Fröken Blytt.

Among the music acts booked for Pop Till You Drop were Peaches, DJ Adam Mac, and Finnish DJ Timo Kaukolampi of Op:l Bastards.

Annie later DJed at Kaukolampi's own nightclub in Helsinki and lent her vocals to some Op:l Bastards tracks.

2003

Annie went on to sign a record deal with Britain's 679 Recordings in 2003, releasing her debut album Anniemal in 2004, for which she received widespread critical acclaim and several Norwegian music awards.

Annie was signed to British label 679 Recordings in March 2003.

Annie recorded the track "Kiss Me" with Kaukolampi, and was approached by Richard X to record vocals for the track "Just Friends" on Richard X Presents His X-Factor Vol. 1, released in August 2003.

In return, he and Hannah Robinson co-wrote "Chewing Gum" and "Me Plus One" for Annie.

2004

Annie and Richard X continued to work together, releasing the single "Chewing Gum" in Annie's name in September 2004.

2009

She released her second studio album, Don't Stop, on the Smalltown Supersound label in 2009.

Annie lives in Berlin.

Annie has been described as "a pop singer with credibility, an indie artist with one eye on the dancefloor" and as "the Norwegian Kylie".

Annie describes her music as "pop with strange edges".

Annie was born in Trondheim, Norway, and was raised in the coastal town of Kristiansand.

Annie's father, a church organist, died of cancer when Annie was 7.

After a series of moves, Annie and her mother, a teacher of English and religion, moved to Norway's second largest city Bergen when Annie was 13.

By this time, Annie sang in choirs.

At age 16, Annie and a group of friends formed Suitcase, an indie rock band.

Suitcase only performed once, before a panel of judges for a music competition where they did not reach the finals.

A few years after Suitcase's inception, Annie left the band because "the other members wanted to make trip hop."
