Dina Carroll, born in Suffolk in 1968, started singing at age of five and won a talent competition at thirteen. In 1989 she recorded Dionne Warwick's "Walk On By", which was a minor hit in Europe. In 1991 she provided vocals for Quartz on their cover of Carole King's "It's Too Late" which topped the UK charts.
Her first album "So Close" in 1992 got four hit singles.
Dina recorded her version of "The Perfect Year" from Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Sunset Boulevard" in 1993. This was another top 5 hit, peaking at #5, and Carroll was to become the only British female to have two singles simultaneously in the Top 10 that decade, with "Don't Be a Stranger" still holding high when "The Perfect Year" entered the charts.
Dina Carroll was named Best Female Artist at the BRIT Awards in February 1994.
Her greatest hits collection was released in 2004.
