Biography

Sandra Lyng Haugen is from the town of Mosjøen in the municipality of Vefsn. She rose to popularity in 2004 after her participation in the Norwegian TV2 program Idol: Jakten på en superstjerne, the Norwegian version of Pop Idol, in which she placed fourth.[1]

Sandra released her debut single the summer hit "Sommerflørt" in 2004, singing with Equicez member Phillip. In 2005, she released the single "I morgen", which stayed in the Norwegian charts for 16 weeks, peaking at number 2. Sandra also released the album Døgnvill under the Universal Norway label in 2005.
