TRACY BONHAM began singing at age five, playing the violin at nine and piano at age fourteen. On her 1996 debut The Burdens of Being Upright, Tracy established herself as a brash rocker with ironic nods to the emerging music of punk grrrl bands. With blunt, direct observations on love and loss, the album went gold and earned Grammy nominations for Best Alternative Music Performance and Best Female Vocalist. Tracy has performed with numerous groups including Blue Man Group, Aerosmith, Ron Sexsmith and Juliana Hatfield. Her most recent album, Masts of Manhatta, was released in July, 2010. http://www.tracybonham.com/
