About Ann-Louise Hanson

  • Ann-Louise Hanson (born in Kristianstad in 1944) is a Swedish singer who has been involved in the music industry since 1956.In 1960, she had her first hit, "Är du ensam i kväll?", a Swedish version of Elvis Presley's Are you lonesome tonight? Many of her solo recordings from the 1960s feature Bruno Glenmarks Orkester and, following their marriage, Ann-Louise and Bruno Glenmark formed the group Glenmarks with Bruno's niece Karin and nephew Anders.
  • Soon after, their own GlenDisc record label began producing vinyl, cassettes and eventually CDs under the banner of 'Hanson-Glenmark Production AB'. Ann-Louise holds the dubious honour of having entered the Swedish Melodifestivalen competition thirteen times without winning once, which is a record in itself.
  • Of those entries, the songs "Bara en enda gång" (a duet with John Ballard) and "Kärleken lever" are amongst her best remembered.
  • Ann-Louise has also attempted to represent Germany at the Eurovision Song Contest in the past.
  • Having moved to France with Bruno in the late 1980s, she now remains a resident of Kristianstad in Sweden. 1986's synth-based Duva - Flyg igen (Doves - Fly Again) is Hanson's most recent studio album, upon which she shared lead vocals with her daughters Jessica and Josefin on the title track, alongside a duet with Billy Preston on "So Good, So Fine". She participated in Melodifestivalen 2019 with the song "Kärleken finns kvar".Ann-Louise's daughter Josefin Glenmark recently embarked upon her own musical career.
