About Samantha Ronson

Samantha Judith Ronson is an English DJ, singer, and songwriter. Ronson has five younger half-siblings: Kenneth and Annabelle (through her mother's remarriage to Mick Jones) and Henrietta, David, and Joshua (by her father's marriage to model Michele First). Ronson became the first rock act signed to Roc-A-Fella Records. In 2002, it was announced that Duncan Sheik would be co-producing an album for Ronson that would be out in the spring; however, given poor timing and the dissolution of the Roc-A-Fella Records, her first album was never released. In November 2011, Ronson released the album Chasing the Reds on her own label, Broken Toy Records.
