Sharleen Spiteri

Spiteri was born in Glasgow to father Eddie, a guitar-playing merchant seaman of Maltese descent, and mother Vilma, a singer of German/Irish roots. When she was young the family moved from the Glaswegian suburbs to nearby Balloch, Dumbartonshire, close to the banks of Loch Lomond. At school her nickname was 'Spit the Dog', after the gobbing mutt on the TV show Tiswas.
