The mutli award-winning, GRAMMY® considered Sharon Lia Band was born as the musical outlet for their namesake, Sharon Lia.  Accompanied by guitarist Rick Jannotti and drummer Howie Fallon, the band began playing the Philadelphia area and quickly won their first “Breakout Artist” competition just a few short years ago.
 
From there, the band started touring the mid-Atlantic, wowing crowds from New Jersey to New Orleans. Drawing upon influences ranging from Florence + the Machine to Muse and Coldplay, Sharon and her band captivate audiences with her powerhouse octave-leaping vocals, textured piano melodies and driving rock guitars with songs reflecting her baroque pop, mainstream rock and alternative influences. In an interview with the Huffington Post, Eileen Shapiro praised “her genuine lyrics and sonic innocence and vulnerability…pierces the hearts of her listeners leaving a lifelong impact on those who hear it.” The songwriting and performances are real, genuine and relatable.
The next three years would also see Sharon found her charitable foundation “Ladies Who Rock 4 A Cause”, a music-driven organization inspired by her own battle with cancer.

The band entered the studio and began recording new material with Grammy-nominated and multi-platinum engineer and producer David Ivory (Halestorm, Silvertide, The Roots)in April of 2017.  Ivory would go on to praise the band by saying “I love working with Sharon, her vocals are stellar and her songwriting is contagious. Awesome eclectic, piano drivin’ progressive pop!“ 

From their collaborations with Ivory came their first single released from their album “Anomie”, Sharon Lia’s most raw song to that date, released January 2018.  The band hit the road soon after with an opening slot for national-touring indie rockers Lydia in Albany, NY, two sets at the Firefly Music Festival in Dover, DE and a slot at the Ladybug Festival.

The band then released their next single, a fun take on the pop genre entitled “Thirty Dirty Secrets” about dating in the modern world.  Continuing in the studio, they released a powerful tune entitled “Why Can’t We Pretend?“ with rave reviews and "Sick Addiction" followed rounding out the singles before their full album release in 2019 called "Beyond Wonderland" which is being considered for a GRAMMY® in the 2020 GRAMMY® Awards.

Sharon Lia won Best Rock Artist of the Year at the Josie Music Awards where they performed to a sold-out audience in Dollywood (Celebrity Theater) at the awards show of the same name and has landed in the pages of Billboard Magazine.
