about

At the start of 2008, Sharon Little was working as a waitress. Less than five months later, she was appearing in concert halls throughout the country as the opening act on the Robert Plant/Alison Krauss and T Bone Burnett “Raising Sand” tour. According to the Paper Doll Songfacts, her first album with CBS, Perfect Time for a Breakdown, was released on May 27 of that year. 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
