She is a very well known and successful artist in the English and French Caribbean region, European territories, Asia, and on her way to introducing her spicy flavor to the U.S. A singer/ songwriter, she has been writing, recording and performing worldwide for more than 10 years.
As a child star in the Caribbean, she is most famous for her reggae inspired, cover version of old French classic “Joe Le Taxi”. She has performed at several prestigious and well recognized venues and events around the world including MIDEM Film and Music Festival (Cannes, Fr/ Miami, FL), Reggae on the River (San Francisco), and at the Apollo Theater (New York).
She completed her Bachelor's of Music Degree in Composition and Jazz Vocal Performance in 2001, and her Master's Degree in Music Business and Entertainment Industries in 2004, both at the University of Miami-School of Music.
With her most recent music, released by Universal Music - Mercury (France), and Universal Music K.K., Sharlene has been no.1 in the Caribbean region once again, throughout Europe and Japan. Several songs from her latest album reached chart topping positions in France, Sweden, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Russia, Japan, Trinidad, and several other territories.
The CD single released by Universal France in 2005 is called “Sweeta Sweeta”, and is one of many songs included on her follow up album, entitled “Sweeta Sweeta-Sharlene”, which was released by Universal Music K.K. a little later on. The single was first released in Europe, complete with a cosmopolitan Music Video, which was shot in Miami, and was played on various TV channels around the world, including Synergy TV (W.I.), M6 (France), BET-J, and MTV Tempo.
Sharlene’s second single and accompanying Music Video “Ask It” was also released in Europe first, before the release of the full album, and enjoyed comparible success.
Released in Asia first, the complete album "Sweeta Sweeta - Sharlene" (Universal Music K.K.), was one of the Top 5 albums in Japan. 4 songs went to no.1! Sharlene performed at various clubs and special events in Japan, as she did extensive promotion in several Japanese cities. She even performed at the National Stadium in Tokyo, where she performed the National Anthem of Trinidad and Tobago, to kick off a soccer match between the Trinidad and Tobago National Soccer Team, and the Japanese Soccer Team.
She is also anticipating the release and promotion of her music in the US region, in the very near future!
Be on the look out for this super hot, spicy taste of Urban-Island sounds. Apart from the sensual, young, high energy feel of Sharlene's music, this free spirit is spreading like wild fire. Her music and spellbinding performances will surely turn you on!
As she puts it, "Performing is what I was born to do." "Being on stage, sharing my music with a fantastic audience, letting the rhythm and the music take over. that gives me a rush that nothing else in life has yet delivered!" "Another advantage is being able to travel around the world to perform my music."
