[edit] Biography
Bree Sharp was born in Philadelphia, and learned to play guitar by age 15. She graduated from Central High School. By 17, she had moved to New York City to study theater at New York University (NYU). She would eventually turn to music and, while still in college, began writing the songs that eventually lead to her 1998 record deal with Trauma Records.
In 1999, she released her first album, A Cheap and Evil Girl, to strong critical reviews. The album's first single, "David Duchovny," quickly garnered a cult following both for its musical qualities and its tie-in to the popular X-Files TV series. The second single, "America," much like "David Duchovny," was an examination of celebrity in American culture.
In 2001, Bree Sharp left Trauma Records and her next album, More B.S., was self-released on her own label Ahimsa Records. In 2004, she released Live at Fez, a live concert album performed in New York.
As of September 2005, Bree Sharp is reportedly working as writer on a Fox Saturday morning anime cartoon show entitled Magical DoReMi. In 2005 she also contributed to the English Pokémon dub with her song "This Side of Paradise" in the Destiny Deoxys movie.
Sharp's latest album, titled Robots in Love, is her third studio effort. It is scheduled for a late spring 2007 release.
