Biography

Karin Stanek (August 18, 1943 – February 15, 2011) was a Polish rock and roll and beat music singer, a member of the band Czerwono-Czarni. She has been known for her charismatic performances and expressive onstage persona, and referred to as one of the symbols of Polish beat music. In the 1960s, she has achieved widespread popularity in Poland with hits like "Malowana lala", "Jimmy Joe", "Chłopiec z gitarą", "Wala twist" and "Jedziemy autostopem". In the 1970s, Stanek emigrated to Germany, where she went on to release German- and English-language material. In the 1990s, she resumed performing in Poland to much success, although remained based in Germany up until her death from pneumonia in 2011. Polish music magazine Machina has placed her on their list of "50 best Polish female singers".
