Tracy Bonham
Tracy Bonham is a twice GRAMMY™ nominated singer-songwriter who was trained as a classical violinist and pianist from age 7. Bonham gave up her full scholarship for violin performance at USC, and the classical handcuffs that bound her, to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston. After singing jingles and performing as a wedding singer in the greater Boston area, Bonham rose to fame in 1996 with her unique style of quirky songwriting and unrefined guitar playing.
Her debut album, The Burdens of Being Upright (Island Records), recorded with Paul Q Kolderie and Sean Slade at Fort Apache Studios in Cambridge achieved Gold status in the US, Australia, and Canada and cast Bonham into the global spotlight with buzz-clip status on MTV and heavy rotation radio airplay with her #1 alternative chart-topping song “Mother Mother”— an anthem for disgruntled teenagers of all ages.
