Biography

Brooke Campbell's most recent album, Sugar Spoon, was released in January 2009. Rife with interesting sounds and lyrical instrumentation, the album opens the ear and the heart to truly lovely confessional writing.
Brooke began writing as a student in South Carolina in the late 90's. She was signed and booked by Arch Music Group in the early 2000's and has toured extensively as a solo artist.
In recent years, she has recorded 2 albums independently: "Better"(2006), a live recording with jazz guitarist Paul Miller and "Sugar Spoon", with William Berlind, released in early 2009.
Collaborations have also been under way. Leslie Scott, choreographer for Bodyart Dance, has worked with Brooke on several projects, including a performance set to "Arms of the Atlantic" at the International Dance Festival in New York and
a video project set around "What Do You Do?" that they completed with Reid Farrington (details on the Links page).
Brooke began performing at 22 following a spiritual awakening and by her own admission, struggles mightily to remain awake. Her music catalogues this journey. Perhaps you will relate.
