| Tracy Bonham |
 |
| A native of Eugene, Oregon, Bonham began singing at age 5, playing the violin at 9, and piano at age 14. After transfering to Berklee College of Music to study voice, leaving her full violin scholarship at the University of Southern California behind, she began to write her own songs on the guitar. It was 1994 and the young musician had decided it was time to express her own feelings and not those of composers from a different era. She proved to be a quick study; Her 1996 major label debut, The Burdens of Being Upright (Island), went gold, spawning the hit single “Mother Mother”, leading to a pair of Grammy™ nominations as well as an MTV Video Award nomination (her video featured her real mother as well as her step father). |
