Britt Black

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Britt Black (aka Brittin Karroll, daughter of Peter Karroll from Her Royal Majesty's Records) is a Canadian rock musician. Her musical career began at the age of ten when she co-wrote with pop artist Bif Naked for the track "Violence", released on Lava/Atlantic. At the age of fourteen Britt founded the all female teen group LiveonRelease. LOR was signed to Warner Music where the band released two albums "Seeing Red" and "Goes On A Field Trip". The success of these records landed the band on international showcases, along with starting a blitz on Canada's media including several high rotation music videos and spots on national TV & radio shows. The band's premier single "I'm Afraid Of Britney Spears" was featured on the soundtrack for the movie Dude, Where's My Car?.

Britt Black is no stranger to the stage and has played every gig that has come her way, from ice cream parlors to local punk shows. When her band "LiveOnRelease" called it quits, Britt Black was quickly scooped up as lead guitarist by Bif Naked.

Britt's tattooed skin, gritty vocals, in-your-face-guitar and aggressive attitude set her apart. Creating music spanning the post-pop punk genre Britt takes her unbridled female fury to new heights with 13 hook drenched, power packed tracks and a full-blown rock show.

Touted by fans and critics alike as the next Joan Jett, Britt Black has just created her first solo album "Blackout". The album was released in America on July 25th 2006 through Bodog Music / Sony / Red and in 2005 through out Canada.
