At the start of 2008, Sharon Little was working as a waitress. Less than five months later, she is appearing in concert halls throughout the country as the opening act on the Robert Plant/Alison Krauss and T Bone Burnett “Raising Sand” tour. She’s winning ovations as Perfect Time For A Breakdown, her brilliant album of heartfelt personal songs, is released nationally. While this might seem that she’s an “overnight sensation,” Sharon is anything but a flash in the pan. She’s a singer of intense emotional honesty and the songs she’s written reveal an old soul that just happens to be within a person possessed of undeniable physical and spiritual beauty. The journey that has taken her so far in seemingly so short a time has actually been a life-long quest to find her voice, both in the literal and figurative sense.
“I’ve known since I was four that I wanted to perform,” says Sharon, noting that her mother says she would hum songs even before she knew how to talk. “If I couldn’t hear music and wasn’t able to perform, I just don’t know what would have happened. I have a lot to say and I’ve always wanted people to listen.” She would never hesitate to sing in whatever talent show school might offer; tellingly one of the songs she most liked to perform at those events was Sly & The Family Stone’s “Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Again).” She seemed uncannily at ease in front of an audience. Her real self was to be found in performance – it was just a question of how to let it out to blossom.

Ich hab mal gedacht, Janis Joplin kann keine übertreffen. Das war ein Trugschluss. Sharon Little kann es und zwar um Längen. Damit will ich J. J. nicht runtersetzen, aber ich empfinde es so.
