Sharif in Concert March 24, 2010

Writing with legendary songsmith Desmond Child has facilitated Los Angeles-based pop, alternative-rock singer / songwriter Sharif’s ability to truly craft a hit single. Sharif’s song “Another Wasted Rose” received an Honorable Mention in the 2008 Billboard World Song Contest. In addition, he has compiled a list of 250+ film and TV credits.

Sharif was handpicked out of hundreds to perform at the 2009 ASCAP EXPO and showcase his songs. These songs can be found on compilation discs alongside bands like O.A.R., Jack Johnson, and the Dave Matthews Band.

The roster of musicians who appear on Sharif’s new record is nothing short of astounding: Tim Bradshaw (John Mayer, David Gray), Jon Graboff (Ryan Adams), Mark Goldenberg (Jackson Browne, Ringo Starr), Rhett Miller (Old 97’s), Stewart Myers (Jason Mraz, Lifehouse, Shawn Colvin), Brian Jones (Mandy Moore, Liz Phair).

Companies like Taylor Guitars, D’Addario Strings, and Planet Waves have aided Sharif with tour support, endorsements, and sponsorships. See him perform acoustically in an intimate setting at The Winchester Music Hall.
