Fanny Faye" Matilda Dagmar Hamlin grew up in Täby, a suburb outside of Stockholm with her parents, older sister, and older brother. When she was 11 years old, she won a national talent contest. Hamlin attended Rytmus, a performing arts high school in  Stockholm. She has referenced Beyonce and Destiny's Child as influences. Career. 2000–2003: Play. In 2000, at the age of 13, Faye was one of hundreds of young girls to audition for a spot in Play, an all-girl pop group formed by Laila Bagge, Anders Bagge, and Andreas Karlsson in Stockholm, Sweden. After nationwide auditions, Faye and her best friend Rosanna were selected to be a part of the group. While rehearsing at Laila's home, Tommy Mottola (who was involved in a phone conversation with Bagge) overheard the group in the background. He was so impressed with their  sound that he flew them to Los Angeles a few days later. After performing for label executives, Play was signed to Columbia Records. Faye was considered to be the lead voice of Play and, as a mezzo-soprano, she was often heard singing the melody and doing the ad-libs in songs. In June 2002, Play released their self-titled album entitled "Play". The album peaked at number 74 on the Billboard Top 200 and their debut single, ""Us Against the World"", found success on Radio Disney and Nickelodeon. Play also made a cameo appearance in Mary-Kate and Ashley  Olsen's movie Holiday in the Sun performing ""Us Against the World"". To promote the album, the group toured nearly non-stop for a year, opening for Destiny's Child, Aaron Carter, and touring with Eden's Crush and A-Teens. Their song ""Disco Hippie"" was featured on a commercial for Build-A-Bear Workshop. In 2002, they recorded a song and later a filmed a video with Lil' Fizz, formerly of B2K, for the Master of Disguise film. In June 2003, the group released their sophomore album titled "Replay", which debuted at number 67 on the Billboard Top  200, and remained on the chart for several weeks. The album's second single ""I Must Not Chase The Boys"" reached Number 10 on MTV's "TRL". The group later went on to perform ""I Must Not Chase The Boys"" on Live with Regis and Kelly. After nearly a year hiatus, it was officially reported in October 2003 that Faye had left the group to return to college, and was replaced by Janet Leon, a 13-year-old singer from Gothenburg. In 2010, Faye recalled her decision to leave the group saying, ""In autumn 2003, I chose to drop out  of Play. The sense of feeling lost, tired and alone had been around for a while, but it was in the autumn that I became fed up and made the decision to leave. Strangely enough, it was loneliness that was most evident towards the end, although I had always had people around me, it was still short of securing the pillars. I was far from home and just wanted to be with family and friends. I chose to invest all my time in high school. Luckily, my mom helped me with applications to the music school Rytmus."" 2004–2009: Modeling and  music. After leaving Play, Faye returned to college and modeling, attending the music school Rytmus and signing with Swedish modeling agency Synkcasting. Faye appeared in several photo shoots and runway shows. She also kept her foot in the music business, releasing occasional singles through modeling campaigns and providing background vocals.

This campaign saw Faye perform the Supertramp hit "Give a Little Bit" alongside some of Sweden's most popular stars including Nina Persson of The Cardigans, Darin and Marie Serneholt. The full version of the song was made available for  purchase and proceeds benefited The Red Cross. 2009–2011: Play's reunion. In 2009, Play was reported to have reunited, without original member Anna Sundstrand. Two weeks before they were scheduled to go back into the studio, member Rosanna Munter decided not to continue with the group, saying in a statement she ""has worked hard on my own music, and I want to give it the chance to be heard."". The group continued as a trio with Faye Hamlin, Anaïs Lameche, and a new member, Sanne Karlsson via the popular Swedish television program, "Made in Sweden". The group achieved a number  one single with "Famous" and a top ten album, "Under My Skin" in Sweden. The comeback was a success.
