About Björk
Artist Biography
There are multihyphenates—and then there is Björk: singer, producer, songwriter, actor, technologist, environmentalist, and more. Her voice may be her most immediately recognizable attribute, yet the broad sweep of her career has produced something more like a total fusion of art and life. Born Björk Guðmundsdóttir in Reykjavik, Iceland, in 1965, she grew up in a commune and recorded her solo debut at 11 before cycling through a succession of bands, culminating with alt-pop upstarts The Sugarcubes. Her adult solo career began in 1993 when boundaries between sounds and disciplines were rapidly eroding; she made the most of that freedom, mixing pop, electronic, and the avant-garde into a multimedia whirlwind that has only accelerated over the years. She has collaborated with figures as distinct as ROSALÍA and Sir David Attenborough; been celebrated in a MoMA retrospective; and even starred in Lars von Trier’s Dancer in the Dark. Through it all, she’s released some of the most indelible hits of her era—and some of its most challenging anti-pop, too.
