Profession
Birgit Schulmann began her singing career a few years before graduating. Her first attempts to enter the music industry ended in failure with R&B and dance projects. In 1995, she also sang in the band Jeunes Turcs together with her sister Katja Schulmann.
After a brief hiatus in her music career, she released a couple of singles in 1999 that achieved greater success. Her singles “A Little Famous” and “Maybe the Wine” did not achieve much success but brought her some fame.
Also, in the same year, Birgit Schuurman starred in a video called “Abel’s Onderweg” and began hosting a TV show on Fox Kids. In 2001, she had her final breakthrough with the song “I Know” and subsequently released an album called “Few Like Me”.
Birgit Schuurman combines her activities with a tour sponsored by the Lenny Kravitz Tribute Shows. In this direction, she recorded a cover of the Skunk Anansie classic “Weak” for the soundtrack of the film “Liever verliefd” in 2002; however, the song did not chart.
In September 2003, she signed with a new record label called Purple Eye Entertainment. This was before she released the single “Everybody Wants to Be”. The video was shot in Miami.
At the end of 2004, Birgit Schuurman played the role of a magician in the film adaptation of the 1969 children’s play “The Gardener”. During this period, she performed in the musical “De Jantjes” as the role of Toffe Jans.
She continued to appear in the series Lieve Lust which premiered on Talpa TV in early August 2005. At that time, she released an album called Sticky Tales which was originally planned to be released in November 2004 and held a launch party in Amsterdam Panama.
In 2006, Birgit Schuurman competed against her sister Katja Schuurman in a competition. However, she eventually won. She also starred in a self-singing coffee commercial directed by Arne Toonen. In 2007, she released an album called USA-only True Stories I Made Up.
12 years after the release of her last album, True Stories I Made Up, Birgit Schuurman was inspired again to write and record new songs. So she started working on her new album privately in 2016.
This was relatively easy as she had no expectations and was free to create. The first single, titled “Fuel My Fire”, became the opening track of the album, which was released on September 27, 2017.
She spent the rest of 2017 back in the studio recording the remaining songs that will likely appear on her new album.
The song “Stranded” is the second song from the album and was released in December 2017. In early 2018, Birgit released a pop track titled “Amplify”.
The album, entitled A Fool for Love, will be Birgit Schuurman’s most autobiographical record to date. It was released on March 28 at the Melkweg Concert Hall in Amsterdam. However, Brigit continues to appear on various TV shows.
