Annie Lennox was born in Scotland on
December 25, 1954. Annie's musical interest was
evident to her parent from the time she was three
years old, which ultimately led her to the Royal
Academy of Music in London to study the flute.
Although Annie's debut LP wasn't released until
1992, Annie is no stranger to musical success. Annie
was one-half of the 1980's super duo, Eurythmics.
While living in London, Annie met guitarist Dave
Stewart and joined a band named The Tourists who
gained marginal success in the U.K. in the late
1970s and early 1980s. Annie and Stewart soon left
the band to form the Eurythmics.
The group disbanded quietly in 1991 when Annie took
time off to have a child, and eventually work on her
solo debut. In 1989, Annie had some non-Eurythmics
success when she teamed up with Al Green to record a
remake of "Put A Little Love In Your
Heart" for the soundtrack to Scrooged."
But in the 90s, Annie emerged as a solo act: a white
girl from Scotland with a lot of soul in her voice.
Before Annie had even gone solo, she was awarded
with 4 Brit Awards for Best British Female Artist
(in 1984, 1986, 1989, and 1990).
