Anouk

Anouk Teeuwe was born on 8 April 1975, in The Hague, Netherlands. As a teenager, she used drugs and ended up living in several care homes after she ran away from her family at the age of fourteen. Her interest in music was triggered through her mother, who was a blues singer. She gave her first performance at fifteen and sang at weddings and parties with the band Shotgun Wedding.

She started attending the Rotterdam Conservatory in 1994, but dropped out two years later. In the same period, her then-husband and manager Edwin Jansen introduced her to Golden Earring front man Barry Hay. Hay believed her to have talent and offered to write some songs for her. One of those songs was “Mood Indigo”; written in collaboration with fellow Golden Earring member George Kooymans.

After she met Bart van Veen, her co-writer, the pair wrote a few songs. On 5 September 1997, she released her second single, “Nobody’s Wife”, which remained at the top of the Dutch music charts for a number of weeks and was a hit in Norway and Sweden. Her debut album Together Alone turned out to be a huge success. In 1998, Anouk won two awards from Dutch music channel TMF in addition to an Edison Award.
