Alice Babs

Alice Babs was a Swedish singer who began her professional career in the late 1930s, emerging from the Scandinavian popular-music scene and working across jazz, light classical and film music. Her repertoire and career spanned jazz-inflected popular song, concert and operatic work, and she represented Sweden at international events such as the 1958 Eurovision Song Contest, reflecting a trajectory that bridged popular and classical musical traditions in mid-20th-century Europe.
