Actually, it's my first and middle name reversed. Govt name is Taylor Brooke... Stage Name is Brooke Taylor :)

Yes, I do perform live all around. I've performed in Japan, Hawaii, and all around Los Angeles.

More grounds to reach people. Practically everyone has a computer and they are always listening to music online, so, the internet is a PERFECT opportunity to be heard!

I'm not ruling anything out because there is always room for negotiation (in my eyes). If the major label was offering a good enough deal to take, then I will, but if not,...then I won't.

This Japanese American Los Angeles native grew up in a musician’s home. Her father was a lead guitarist/singer of different local garage bands that frequently gigged around Los Angeles. It was already in her blood to pursue music. At the age of five, she taught herself how to play the piano by ear. At age 13 she performed in school talent shows as well as principal musical roles. At age 15 she started singing in her father’s band. Then at the age of 16 she cut her first official demo. Brooke’s biggest break finally came along when she ran into Mr. Steve Harvey at Santa Monica College. She went to audition for a vocal competition called "The Other Idol". Arriving to the jam-packed Santa Monica College cafeteria, singing a cappella, she received a standing ovation after her rendition of Aretha Franklin’s song “Chain of Foolsâ€쳌. Sheryl Lee Ralph who was one of the guests on the show was so impressed that Brooke was invited to open up for her Annual Aids Benefit Concert called "Divas Simply Singing". From then on, Brooke performed at showcases with Mr. Steve Harvey, as well as other Los Angeles venues trying to be heard. Another radio opportunity came up with DJ Felli Fel of Power 106fm. A competition called "Soul Call". Singers call in to compete and the person who wins that whole week gets to sing live on the air for a chance to hold the title of "Soul Call Champion". Winning the whole week, Brooke performed in studio on the air live with DJ Felli Fel, but returned home title-less, ready for the next competition. That opportunity arose when Big Boy's Neighborhood was seeking a "Neighborhood Idol". Eager once again, Brooke went out to each remote to compete and get into the studio with Mr. Big Boy himself. Making it to the finals, she performed for a panel of celebrity judges, receiving high marks crowning her the "Neighborhood Idol" Winner. Not only did she hold this title, but also she was invited to open up for a major recording artist at the next backstage breakfast. Big Boy has a segment on his show called "Phone Tap" where he calls up random victims pulling a huge phone prank on them. Yep, you guessed it, poor Brooke happened to be one of the victims! It was funny and unexpected! Shortly after the win, Brooke flew out to Japan to sing at a couple of different clubs in Tokyo. "Japan was a great experience, I can't wait to go back to perform" said Brooke. Her songs have been heard on the radio overseas as well! She recently had some singles rotating in France, London, Sweden, Amsterdam, Spain, etc. Brooke is in the final stages of completing her Debut Album titled “L.O.V.E.â€쳌. Not only writing/composing all her material, but she is also the Executive Producer of her album. Starting March she will be in Europe promoting her album as well as performing at various clubs overseas. “It has been a long time coming, and I wanted to show that with hard work and determination, anything is possible.â€쳌

Wow, I've got so many influences, from Aretha Franklin, to Mariah Carey, to Chaka Khan, Patti Labelle, Stevie Wonder, all the greats!

Los Angeles... come on now!! BORN AND RAISED BABY!! :)

I want everyone to reach for their dreams. Never lose focus of what your heart desires. Only you can make things possible in your life...to make yourself happy!! Always do things with L.O.V.E. :)
