Meredith Brooks is an American rock singer, songwriter, and guitarist best known for her 1997 hit song "Bitch" from her third album "Blurring The Edges." Born on June 12, 1958, in Oregon City, Oregon, Brooks began her music career in the early 80s but gained significant commercial success and recognition in the late 90s. After playing in various bands and working on her songwriting, she broke through with "Blurring The Edges," which was received with critical acclaim and commercial success, earning her a nomination for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance at the Grammy Awards.

Meredith Brooks' work is known for its raw energy, catchy melodies, and introspective lyrics that delve into themes of self-identity, empowerment, and personal struggles. Following "Blurring The Edges," she released albums such as "Deconstruction" (1999), "Bad Bad One" (2002), and "Shine" (2004), which showcased her development as an artist and a willingness to explore different musical directions. While she never replicated the stratospheric success of "Bitch," her influence as a singer-songwriter has endured, and she has continued to make music, tour, and connect with fans around the globe. Her expanded edition release of "Blurring The Edges" reflects both her enduring legacy and the ongoing relevance of her music in the contemporary rock landscape.
