Anne Linnet i 18b

On October 1, 2026, Anne Linnet plays 18b in Harboøre. Active on the Danish pop and rock scene since the 1970s, she first made her mark with the all-female band Shit & Chanel, shaping a Danish-language pop rock fed by folk and chanson. As a solo artist, her 1978 album Kvindesind set poems by Tove Ditlevsen to music, a thread she returned to with Barndommens gade in 1986 for film. In the early 80s, she formed Anne Linnet Band with Sanne Salomonsen and Lis Sørensen, and launched the new wave project Marquis de Sade, opening a darker, synth-leaning palette. Across albums like Anne Linnet (1981), her songs center on voice, direct melodies and carefully built pop arrangements.

On stage, Linnet brings together intimate storytelling and social questions, writing about love, gender and identity with lyrics that keep the narrative upfront. Her repertoire spans solo work, band-era tracks and music for the screen, linking the electric edge of her groups with the literary textures that run through her catalog.
