September

Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden, September (real name Petra Marklund) is the dance-pop singer behind hits like "Cry for You" and "Until I Die." A precocious talent, Marklund got her start in the industry early. At only 12 years old she was already recording in studios; at 18 she released her first single, "La La La (Never Give It Up)," which made it to No. 8 in Sweden's pop charts. Working alongside the songwriting and production trio of Jonas von der Burg, Niclas von der Burg and Anoo Bhagavan, September went on to release multiple singles and three albums between 2004 and 2007. A frequent visitor to various European pop charts, she represented her home country in 2007's Sopot International Song Festival, against artists like Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Thierry Amiel.
