Sharon Brooks is a singer/songwriter and producer originally from Barbados and based in Canada and Australia. She has performed as a back-vocalist for Deborah Cox, Jonas, Omar & Martha Wash and worked in studio with Motown legend Bernard "Pretty" Purdie.

Her career began in 1995 when after winning the Richard Stoute Teen Talent competition in Barbados, she went on to sing as a back-vocalist with the popular Caribbean bands, Spice & Company, and John King & Jegna. In 1995 she also went on to win the National Ambassador Title alongside designer Wayne Smith, and represented Barbados as Miss Barbados in the 1995 Miss Carival Competition in St. Vincent. She completed a degree in Mass Communications and in 1998 made the move to Toronto, Canada.

Upon reaching Toronto, Sharon promptly began work as a lead vocalist with Selective Collective, a Jazz group led by Henry Heillig. She also began working as a session singer, recording commercials and vocals for other artists. This led to her fronting an R&B cover band "Motor City" which eventually took her to living and working in Beijing, China. It was her life here that inspired her debut album "A Taste Of Life".
