Suzanne Nadine Vega
(born July 11, 1959) is an American singer-songwriter, musician and record producer, best known for her
folk
-inspired music.
Vega's music career spans almost 40 years. She came to prominence in the mid 1980s, releasing four singles that entered the Top 40 charts in the
UK
during the 1980s and 1990s, including "Marlene on the Wall", "
Left of Center
", "
Luka
" and "
No Cheap Thrill
". "
Tom's Diner
", which was originally released as an
a cappella
recording on Vega's second album,
Solitude Standing
(1987), was remixed in 1990 as a dance track by English
electronic
duo
DNA
with Vega as featured artist, and it became a Top 10 hit in over five countries. The song was used as a test during the creation of the
MP3
format.

The critical role of her song in the development of the
MP3
compression prompted Vega to be given the title of "The Mother of the MP3".
Vega has released nine
studio albums
to date, the latest of which is
Lover, Beloved: Songs from an Evening with Carson McCullers
, released in 2016.
