In 2007 singer Ida Corr conquered dancefloors and charts all over the world with her single "Let Me Think About It", remixed by Fedde Le Grand. It became the most successful single of a Danish artist after Aqua and Infernal. Most people know her probably for this big hit. But how did it start with Ida's career?
Ida Corr was born in Aarhus, Denmark. She was raised in a home filled with music. Her father - a musician - jammed a lot with his friends. She started out drumming at six, formed her own band at nine, performing soul classics by James Brown and Aretha Franklin on the streets of Aarhus. At the age of eleven her band won the very first National Danish Radio Songcontest for Children.
From then on there was no other path for Ida Corr than the path of music. Over the next years she developed her singing talent and built up her career as a perfomer, by becoming one of the most popular backing vocals in Danish music.
In the summer of 2004 she released her debut single "U Make Me Wanna", which became an instant radiohit in Denmark, without anybody knowing anything about the artist, apart from the fact that this was a great track.
Ida's debutalbum "Streetdiva" hit the stores in April 2005. Massive touring followed, including festivals such as Roskilde- and Skanderborg Festival - performing with a 10 piece act, including hornsection, percussion and rappers a real soulband.
In 2006 the new album "Robosoul" was released, which features the hit singles "Late Night Bimbo" and "Let Me Think About It".
Since the worldwide success of "Let Me Think About It", Ida is constantly on the go, playing at exclusive clubs worldwide. Recently she released her album "One" in Europe and the United States, which contains some of her best known tracks from her two previous albums.
Ida's latest album "Under The Sun" contains the singles "Time", "I Want You" and "Under The Sun feat. Shaggy".
