After the departure of Christensen, the remaining trio (Rosendahl, Jørgensen and Struck) continued playing together and renamed their band as Swan Lee. An entire album was recorded with the newly-signed Cannibal Records, but the label never released because of musical differences with the label's director Kim Hyttel, followed by lawsuits. Other record companies rejected them seeing a potential only in Rosendahl.
The band finally decided to establish their own record label, named GoGo Records, and in February 2001 released their debut album Enter. The album sold 20,000 copies and contained, the single "Tomorrow Never Dies", written in collaboration with Tim Christenen. In 2004, the band had another album, the self-titled Swan Lee in 2004. Swan Lee disbanded in September 2005.
In late summer 2007, she and her husband Johan Wohlert formed a rock band The Storm after he quit his former band Mew. The Storm has released two albums Where the Storm Meets the Ground in 2008, and Black Luck in 2009.
She is married to Johan Wohlert formerly of the alternative music band Mew. They have a son named Tristan born in June 2006. She is also the sister of the Danish film director Christina Rosendahl.
