Anka Wolbert co-founded the band Xymox with Ronny Moorings in 1981, self-publishing their first mini-album Subsequent Pleasures in 1983.
In the United States, this album created a cult following for the band with much support from college radio stations and sold out venues on live tours.
[13][14][15] The album's third single Imagination, written and sung by Anka Wolbert, brought the band the most mainstream attention, charting at No.
Wolbert was signed by Dave Stewart of Eurythmics to the publishing side of his label, Anxious Records.
In 1997, EMI folded the label into Virgin Records which left many artists in limbo, Vaselyn one of them,[20][21] and Wolbert decided to take a break from the music industry.
[24] Textura Magazine wrote that the album "impresses as a splendid and oft-intoxicating collection of classic songwriting, romantic mood-sculpting, and earthy vocalizing.
[28] Wolbert and Nooten also co-produced Sophie Zeyl's album Running Two Ways on I-Rain Records in 2006.
