Shea Seger was born in
Fort Worth,
Texas and grew up in
Quitman,
Texas listening to her
father's music collection. But her
career started when she moved to
London, where she recorded her
debut album
The May Street Project. Most of the songs are
authored by herself and her
producer and friend Martin Terefe. In my opinion the
song writing is the only not so great thing about this
CD, as I find it is too unpersonal and replaceable (short: too much
Pop). The music itself is great. Shea Seger, though only 21 years old, has a great knowledge of music and mixes
Hip Hop,
Blues,
Soul and
Pop elements. Her
music is not as one-dimensional,as her song-writing but very
experimental. Her great
voice supports this experience.
