Anne Linnet Band was formed in 1980, and recorded the all-time ballad "Det er ikke det du siger" with Sanne Salomonsen on vocals.[1]

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

Career

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. In 1981, their first album Anne Linnet Band was released, followed by the final album Cha cha cha in 1982.[2] Anne Linnet's then husband Holger Laumann played saxophone on both albums.

Anne Linnet had stated in the 2018 documentary film Anne, Sanne & Lis that a reunion of Anne Linnet Band would "not be in this life". However, the same documentary film rekindled conversation among the three singers, which ended up convincing them that a tour would be fun and a party for the fans.[3] Even though Anne Linnet Band only existed for a few years in the '80s, they were successful.[4] 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.[5][6] The sold-out concert at Royal Arena with 15 000 spectators received acclaim in the media.[7]
