Clare Brooks Location: Bournemouth, England
Although I was born in Paris and mostly raised in London, I spent a lot of my youth in Brazil. Because of the influences of life, music and dance in Rio de Janeiro, I started writing my own stuff and recording with my Dad - Brian Brooks. I was 16 when I recorded my first song - Looking at You.
Moving back to Paris for a couple of years, I got involved with the punk and hiphop scene there and performed all kinds of music live, going back to such artists as Cole Porter and Billie Holliday and fronting a five piece band.
Now I am in my third year at Bournemouth University studying film and television production.
So who knows what's around the next corner? |
