Tasmin Archer is an English pop singer, best known for her early 1990s hit "Sleeping Satellite," which was part of her debut album "Great Expectations" released in 1992. Born on August 3, 1963, in Bradford, West Yorkshire, Archer's music career took off after she signed with EMI Records. Her soulful voice and thoughtful lyrics quickly garnered critical acclaim and a strong following. After the success of her first album, which also won her a BRIT Award for British Breakthrough Act in 1993, Archer's subsequent releases included the albums "Bloom" and "ON" although they did not achieve the same level of commercial success as her debut.
