Sidsel Ben Sémmane is Danish with Algerian roots. Over the last decade she has transformed from teen pop star to discerning musical artist, traveling through numerous countries, collaborations and styles, and learning multiple languages along the way. At the age of 17, she won first place on the Danish Eurovision (national original song contest show), toured nationally, and released her first solo-album “Where Are My Shoes” achieving a gold record. She travelled the world, spending time living in Cuba, Singapore, Spain and the US while studying at ‘The Royal Academy of Music’ for seven years; writing, recording and performing, obtaining her masters degree in the process.
In 2017 she started a collaboration with the German Label ‘What We Call Records‘ and released 3 singles under the artist name “Sémmane”. Currently working on her new album ‘The Art of Being You’ to be released in the near future, the ‘Art of Being You’ is about finding strength, believing in yourself, and acknowledging all parts of our identity and emotions, even the ones that might not be so easy.
