Linn Berggren Biography

Linn Berggren is one of the most popular and richest Pop Singer who was born on October 31, 1970 in Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden. Pop singer, best known for founding 1990s pop band Ace of Base with her sister Jenny and her brother Jonas.

She and Ace of Base were regular guests on BBC’s Top of the Pops. The series was hosted by Fearne.

When Ace of Base was signed to Danish label Mega Records in 1990, Malin, or Linn as she became known, chose to put her teaching career on hold. But while her sister Jenny has stated she always wanted to be a singer, Linn has never said anything similar. On the contrary, in 1997 Linn said: “I wanted to sing; I never wanted to be a singer”. Linn’s vocal range is contralto as she is recognised by her distinguishable vibrato and expressive unique voice.

During the promotion for Ace of Base’s first album, Linn was the principal lead vocalist for the majority of the singles and was generally the focus in the videos, although on some singles (“The Sign”, “Waiting for Magic”) and album tracks Jenny and Linn shared leads. Linn had a somewhat minor role in the composition of Happy Nation and The Sign, only having co-writing credits on one track on a re-release of the former. She was influential in the development of “All That She Wants”, demanding that the track be changed from major key to minor. In 1994, a German girl invaded the Berggren family home, targeting Linn. Linn was not present, but the girl attacked Jenny and her mother with a knife. This incident had a large impact on Linn. During the release of the group’s second album, The Bridge, the focus in both vocals and media became more equal with her younger sister, Jenny. Linn had a larger role in the composition of The Bridge and wrote and produced several songs for the album. Following the completion of the album, it was reported that Linn developed unspecified recurrent vocal problems.

She kept her private life secret, which was unlike Ace of Bass members who shared details about their lives and relationships. She was multilingual and could speak Swedish, English German, Russian, French and Spanish.

The first official press photos released for the Flowers / Cruel Summer albums, released on 21 March 1998, show Linn in equal or greater focus than that of her bandmates. However, many future promotional materials for the albums, as well as those used in the album booklets, contain blurred, unsmiling, distinctly unhappy photographs of her. The Flowers album in particular uses the infamous ‘blue lines’ photograph, where Linn’s unhappy image is bizarrely hidden behind the booklet’s blue line design. According to Jonas, Clive Davis’s insistence that Linn record “Everytime It Rains” for the Cruel Summer album in 1998 was “the tipping point” for Linn’s withdrawal from the band and that it “was the worst thing for her”. Jenny had recorded a version of the song, but Arista Records was unhappy with this version and pressed the band for Linn to record a version featuring only her vocals. Upon the release of the albums, Linn’s vocal contributions were reduced in comparison to the group’s previous releases. Beginning with “Life is a Flower”, Linn appearance in the band’s music videos became much less than it had been in previous videos. She no longer mimed her vocal parts in the videos and her screen time was drastically shortened. Her image in the videos became at times blurred (“Cruel Summer”) or almost nonexistent (“Travel to Romantis”). That year, Linn walked off the set of the “Cruel Summer” music video in Rome whilst filming; her manager said it was because she did not wish to appear in the foreground of the video. Director Nigel Dick later revealed she would not have appeared at all, were it not for his insistence. Linn infrequently took part in group interviews with her other band members throughout 1998 for the promotion of the Flowers album, however, her participation was often minimal, and in many cases the band performed as a trio. In one such interview, however, Linn expressed her desire to further her music production skills. That year, Bravo magazine claimed that Linn was seriously ill, based on Linn’s odd appearance on Germany’s television spot The Dome, and photos appearing in Bravo. Linn granted one final radio interview on Mix FM in Lebanon in late 1998, where she talked about new album plans and sang “All That She Wants” a capella.
