Tina Dico (born as Tina Dickow on October 14, 1977 in Aarhus, Denmark) is a singer and songwriter, inspired by artists such as Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen.
Tina Dico was born in Aabyhøj near Aarhus. At a very young age she was introduced to music by her father who owned a big hifi-system in their basement.
After public school, she attended a music boarding school, and after that she went to high school. Music was still her passion and during her first years she performed with the cover band, Fester Kester.
In 1997 while attending her third year at high school, she was cast to the erotic TV-series, Karrusel (Carrousel), where she starred with Peter Steen and Michael Falch (produced 1997, broadcast 1998 on Danish TV2). After her performance she was offered several parts but didn’t like to be recognized as the “naive girl from Jutland” which was why she refused every offer.
In 1998, Tina Dico introduced the other members of the band Fester Kester to a song of her own, and their enthusiasm made them enter, and win, two talent contests the same year: “Talentspot” on Danish TV2, and “Vi har scenen, har I musikken?” (We have the stage, do you have the music?) in Aarhus.
The band “Tina Dickow and Sheriff” was formed in 1998 and later that year the single “Your Waste of Time” was released. It was picked as “Song of the Week” on Danish National Radio, P3, and lead to some degree of fame.
Hereafter several conversations with established record labels followed, but the way they intended to market her was not satisfying. Instead she got a loan from a bank, and started her very own record label, Finest Gramophone, in 2000.

The name Dickow is an old slavic name. So it isn´t danish or scandinavian at all. But yes she did it because outsite of Danmark it could be pronounced in a different way. For example in Germany we would speek the "w" in the end, if we wouldn´t know that it is wrong. Because in Mecklenburg (Germany) we have a lot of slavic names and we know that the "w" is not spoken. Also citynames like Teterow, Güstrow or Bützow they were all planted and founded by slacic people in the 14th century. (omg its maybe to much info now... sorry, but I had to tell you that :-))
