/ Dark-Pop, Hardcore-Ballads, USA (Posted in Danish, 2012 February 15th)
As a consequence of my general curiosity I had to test MTV Push (mentioned in the previous post). It took 4 attempts and I found something very interesting!
Skylar Grey (her real name is Holly Brook Hafermann; the first album is released under the name Holly Brook) is an American singer-songwriter and record producer.
She has worked with Marilyn Manson, Rihanna, Eminem, P Diddy and Dr. Dre. She was nominated for a handful of Grammys 2012 in cooperation with others, but did not win.
More info below ...
She started her career as a child: she performed in a folk duo with her mother, and at age 15 she sneaked into bars to perform / play with jazz musicians in Wisconsin. At age 18 she moved to Los Angeles and made a demo. She was discovered by Linkin Park guitarist Brad Delson, who helped her progress.
She changed her artist name to sound more original and less feminine - "it's more masculine. I'm not a very feminine person." she says.
She works with a lot of other artists and has been nominated for her good work.
She has released two albums - the third published 2015.
