Susanne Salomonsen (born on 30 December 1955) is a Danish singer and songwriter, better known under the nickname Sanne Salomonsen.[1][2][3] Salomonsen joined a local rock band in 1967, and her first solo album was released in 1973. She became one of the most famous singers in Denmark during the 1980s. Various songs sung or written by her have been on the local charts.[4]
Sanne Salomonsen was a member of Anne Linnet Band and Sneakers, and got the nickname Rock Mama as an enduring pop icon in Danish rock music.[5] She thought at age 31 around the time she got the nickname from a journalist: "When I heard that piece of music [from OneTwo], I thought that now, I have become a mom for a generation in rock music."[6] She said in 2011: "I am always asked what I think about being called Rock Mama, but when I look around on the Danish scene then, I can after all clearly see, that if there is a rock mama then, it is me. That is how it is."[7]

Jeg bliver altid spurgt om, hvad jeg synes om at blive kaldt 'rockmama', men når jeg kigger rundt på den danske scene, så kan jeg jo tydeligt se, at hvis der er en rockmama, så er det mig. Sådan er det.
