Linda Estelle biography

Linda Estelle (Linda Roza Blokland), the resonant voice of T-Spoon, was born in Arnhem in the Netherlands on the 23rd of January 1974. She has two sisters, Wendy and Sara. Her mother is called Roos. She always dreamt of becoming famous. At the age of 16 she began singing in studios. She is 1,70 m tall. At first she was a brunette, but the management suggested that she could become blond-haired.

After finishing high school (HAVO) she was employed in an art gallery, while occupying her spare time singing radio jingles and doing vocal studio sessions. Her interest in singing got started at a very young age and it only grew bigger and bigger. She eventually went on to working together with the boys of Arnhemsgewijs and Replay, both two very succesfull Dutch R&B groups. There was one thing that she was certain of and that was that she wanted to end up in the entertainment business.

At the end of 1995 she bumped into Remy de Groot, the manager of T-Spoon. She auditioned for T-Spoon and they must have liked what they saw, because Linda was chosen as their new vocalist. She made her debut on T-Spoon's fifth single See The Light. The song originally didn't contain her voice but only vocals from Shamrock and guest vocalist Johnny Kelvin. Linda's vocals were added on the single-release. Linda could be heard on every song of the album Lexicon of Melody.

In interviews, she explained she admired Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Taylor Dayne, and Prince. She was also impressed by singers such as Bjork and Alanis Morisette. She also enjoyed going out to nightclubs. 'The Luxor' in Arnhem and Amsterdam's 'iT' and 'Challenge' night spots are her favourite nocturnal destinations. She also admitted being a bit of a filmbuff. Her favorite actor is Harrison Ford. 'The Mask', 'Single White Female' and 'The Fugitive' are among the films she prefers. Being of Surinam descent it's not a surprise to learn that she loves Surinamian and spicy Mexican food. She loves animals and has two cats and two dogs at home. Linda is very fond of winter vacations although she freely admits that skiing is not one of her strong points. She still lives in Arnhem with the love of her life, her husband Edmond.

Even if at first she hoped to stay part of T-Spoon for a very, very long time, a few years later, after Shamrock left the project, she realized she needed to spend more time with her daughter Rose. Her private life was difficult as she was getting divorced. She started a carreer of vocal coach.

2002 : Linda joined Des'ray (of 2 Brothers On The 4th Floor) and Anita Doth (former vocalist of 2 Unlimited) for a a one time project called Divas Of Dance. They will do remakes of old songs, but they will also do hitmixes of their greatest hits in their shows. Her dad became her tour manager.

2010 : Linda and Shamrock are touring as T-spoon reloaded.
