Stina Nordenstam (born ''Kristina Marianne Nordenstam'' March 4, 1969 in Stockholm, Sweden) is a Swedish Experimental Rock|Experimental pop music|Pop singer, songwriter and musician.
Stina's distinctive, breathy voice led to early comparisons with artists like Rickie Lee Jones and Björk. Her early albums, ''Memories Of A Colour'' and ''And She Closed Her Eyes'' were significantly jazz-influenced with subtle elements of alternative rock. With 1997's ''Dynamite (album)|Dynamite'' she started down a darker, more experimental path - most of the album was filled with over-processed distorted electric guitars and unusual beats, but careful listening revealed her unique songwriting abilities. An album of covers, ''People Are Strange (album)|People Are Strange'', followed before she returned in 2001 with ''This Is Stina Nordenstam'', an album with shorter songs and a more Pop music|pop-like, but still highly distinctive feel; ex-Suede (band)|Suede vocalist Brett Anderson featured on two tracks. In 2000 she featured on one track from Danish prog-rockers Mew (band)|Mew's second album Half The World Is Watching Me. The same track was later re-recorded for the bands international debut ''Frengers''. Her 2004 album ''The World Is Saved'' continues the path set on ''This Is...'', but presents a more realized sound and acknowledges her earlier jazz influences more.
