Brigid Boden

Brigid Boden is a singer from Dublin, Ireland. After a childhood spent in Dublin, she studied dance there and in New York City, culminating in a scholarship to the Dance Theatre of Harlem.[1] She then moved to London to focus on songwriting.[2] After sending demo recordings to producer and musician Kevin Armstrong, she signed with A&M/PolyGram Records and released her first album in 1997. The lead single "Oh, How I Cry" peaked at #4 on Billboards new breakout artist and #44 on Billboard's Hot Dance Music/Club Play charts in 1997 due in part to remixes by Todd Terry and The Dust Brothers.[3] A&M was absorbed by Interscope Records in 1999, and Boden did not release any new material until 2007, when a second album was released by Universal Records. Brigid has worked on several soundtracks including Dead Man Walking and Lord of the Rings/War of the Ring and is at present in the studio recording her third album. Read more on Last.fm.
