Sharon
May Linn started singing professionally at the age of 17 - a
backing vocalist she proved too talented to hide on the backlines
and began a solo career stretching across several bands and often
clocking up over a hundred live performances a year - from reggae
to rock to 70s-80s cover bands and acid jazz groups, she becomes
a great interpreter of big soul names like Aretha Franklin, Tina.Turner
and many others.
At
the same time Sharon was busy cutting tracks and developing her
own creativity writing lyrics and learning the production aspects
of music and for 10 years has been adding her own style as a
free-style vocalist and 'posh' MC over the deck talents of many
well known House DJs at some of the Worlds best clubs, first
in Italy and then also Ibiza, Mexico, England, Poland, Switzerland
and Germany, Russia and many more.
Although
Sharon had released many tracks it wasn't until the summer of
2005 when her vocals for Lil Love's LITTLE LOVE shot to the top
of the charts that she really hit the worlds stage with one of
the best known house vocals ever
Her
2003 self-penned 'DESTINATION UNKNOWN' also became a hit ironically
thanks to vocals by diva Crystal Waters. Todays clubbers are
also enjoying the excellent remix , released under the title
'DESTINATION CALABRIA'.
Two
further releases followed WaWa feat. Sharon May Linn 'SUNSHINE',
including a version by House producer and DJ Jerry Ropero -(Blanco
y Negro/Vendetta, Spain) and Blu Lipstick (Sharon May Linn &
Magilla) 'HEAD OVER HEELS', including an Alex Gaudino version
(Riserec/TIMErecords, Italy) which found it's way onto the cult
club HED KANDI 2006 compilation.
In
December 2006 "Burning Desire" written and sung by
Sharon on the grooves of italian DJs, Domenico Baldoni and Lauro
Predieri, was released under the project named FRIENDS ELECTRIC
by Wicked & Wild records... Already on Traxsource and soon
on Beatport as well. With the same team Sharon wrote and sang
"THERE'S NO REASON" which will also be available soon!
It
is very likely that Sharon has another smash hit on her hands
as 'I GOT FEVER' a similarly infectious vocal track , written
and produced with DJ Sergio D'Angelo, has just been released
on Lemans recordings, Germany; including a real "bomb"
version and a dub one created by the super energic WaWa bros!!!!
Another soulfull track 'DON'T KEEP ME HANGING ON also with Sergio
D'Angelo has been released on Equal Records, Italy, while MOVE
IT OUT a track released under the project name of Smack it, which
are Sharon, dj Stefano Pain and Marcello Lepore, has already
hit the top of the Italian dance charts on Stereo Seven records,
Italy).
Recently Sharon May Linn has
been touring with the re-formed Italian house icons FPI Project
('Rich in Paradise', 'Back To My Roots') , to rapturous crowd
reaction at some of Europes biggest dance music venues, and is
recording a new album with them
