Beth Hart - Popular Female Singers Today

I first heard Beth Hart on Star Search back in '93. I didn't ever watch Star Search. I just happened to be flipping through the channels when I heard someone singing. That someone was Beth Hart. I ended up watching the whole season of Star Search that year because Beth went to the end and won. I was so excited because I thought that she would for sure get signed and come out with an album.

It wouldn't be until years later -2000 I believe- that I would find her album "Screamin' for my Supper." I was on a day trip to Johnson City, TN and had stopped in a used CD store on a whim. I was so excited.

It would be another year or two before LA Song would become a frequently played song on the radio.

I haven't had the chance to see Beth live. I did have tickets for one of her shows at the Hard Rock in DC. My boyfriend and I drove out there but the show was canceled. I still hope to see her one of these days.

Beth Hart is from Pasadena, California. She is a proud Aquarius, which is probably why I am so drawn to her music.

She has been a music lover since she was a wee little thing. She was known for listing to classical music at a young age. As she grew older she became more interested in mainstream music.

She lost her father to prison at a very early age. When her father would get out her parents would divorce.

Beth got involved with alcohol and drugs in her teenage years. This turned into full blown abuse as she got older. She would work hard only to lose everything when her record label became aware of just how bad off she was. There she was with a hit song on the radio and appearances on shows such at the Tonight Show. She was truly on the verge of major success when she lost it all.

She has since hit her bottom and cleaned up. She went to rehab and ended up getting married to her manager Scott Guetzkow.

She still has bad days but she takes it a day at a time. For the most part she is extremely happy now.

Beth Hart will be playing in:

Lucerne, Switzerland at the Blue Balls Festiveal on July 27th, 2010

She is then coming back to the US:

LA at the Whisky a Go Go on August 26th, 2010
Telluride, CO at the Telluride Blues on September 19th, 2010

She will then start a tour in Norway and Denmark in October.
