About the artist

English singer, songwriter and actress, born in Hampstead, London, to a British army-officer father and the Austro-Hungarian Baroness Eva von Sacher-Masoch; raised in Reading after her parents' divorce, she rose to fame as a 1960s pop icon before reinventing herself as a gravel-voiced art-rock singer
