Biography

German chanteuse Ute Lemper is something of a renaissance woman. In addition to her successful recording career, she's known for her work in films and theater. Musically, the cabaret-rooted singer started out interpreting the songs of her primary influences, Edith Piaf, Marlene Dietrich, and Kurt Weill. By 2000 Lemper had crossed over to the pop world, releasing albums with material by the likes of Elvis Costello, Nick Cave, and Tom Waits, and collaborating with Neil Hannon (Divine Comedy) and Laurie Anderson.
