The debut album from 20 year old Brooke Fraser is "What To Do With Daylight."
Brooke wrote all 11 tracks on the album and played instruments on each song.
The album's contrast of haunting, soul-searching confessions and lighthearted, joyful tunes reflects the different sides of Brooke's personality - the young woman who has been involved with World Vision for two years, and is travelling to Cambodia with the charity group; and the teenager who spends hours hanging out with friends and forming her next plan of attack against zits.
Talented guest musicians who performed on Brooke's album include infamous New Zealand muso Godfrey de Grut, Spearhead bassist Carl Young and producer / drummer Brady Blade.
Brooke's first single Better exploded onto the music charts, peaking at #3 with her second single "Lifeline" looking likely to do the same.
Her musical influences range from soulful crooners Marvin Gaye and James Taylor to new millenium artists including John Mayer and India Arie. She also plays a variety of musical instruments, including the piano, which she began studying at seven, and the guitar, which she taught herself at 16.
Brooke Fraser is an incredible talent who writes beyond her years and will surely have a long and stellar career.
