1999年，出生于都柏林的Nina Hynes发布了她个人的首张专辑《Creation》，很快又去到美国开了几场演唱会来宣传自己的新作。在这数场唱会上，她将美国式的另类曲风同自己的另类电子SOLO结合到一起，取得了成功。在当年Amazon.com网站的年度TOP 100专辑的票选评比中，《Creation》一举取得了NO.44的成绩，《HITS》杂志称她为“2000年度最具魅力的新发现”，并常常被用来与其他的一些优秀歌手如：Bjork、Cat Power以及Stereolab进行比较，对于刚刚出道的Nina来说，这样的成绩已属不易。 　　事实上，Nina相当得幸运。她的专辑《Staros》是在法国的Studio Black Box进行录制的，在录制的过程当中还受到了她最喜爱的一些音乐制作人的悉心帮助，其中包括The Frames。专辑中的第一首单曲“Mono Prix”则是传奇音乐制作人Steve Osborne帮忙完成remix部分工作的，要知道Steve Osborne可是诸如New Order、Doves、U2、Placebo以及PJ Harvey等等诸多超级大牌乐队的制作人啊～ 　　08年年末，Nina受邀为一张圣诞专辑作了一首名为“An Indiecater Christmas”的圣诞歌曲，该专辑为Indiecater Records唱片公司出版发行。 Irish vocalist Nina Hynes spent two of her teenage years in Northern Ireland where she learned to play guitar and develop her voice. She then moved to France where she tested out her new-found talents by busking on the streets of Paris. Upon returning to Ireland, Hynes spent time alongside fellow struggling musicians Mundy and Paddy Casey during singer/songwriter nights at the International and ended up being picked up by local independent record label Reverb Records. Her six-song debut album Creation garnered favorable reviews in both Ireland and Europe. The time following the album's 1999 release was spent supporting touring acts such as Stereolab, Cat Power, and David Gray, as well as touring Europe with electronic composer Harold Budd.
