About Beth Hart

Beth Hart (born January 24, 1972) is an American musician from Los Angeles, California. She rose to fame with the release of her 1999 single "L.A. Song (Out of This Town)" from her second album Screamin' for My Supper. The single was a number one hit in New Zealand, as well as reaching the top five of the US Adult Contemporary and Top 10 on the Billboard Adult Top 40 charts. Hart has had several well received collaborations with guitarist Joe Bonamassa, beginning with Don't Explain (2011), followed with the Grammy-nominated Seesaw (2013) and Live in Amsterdam (2014). Live in Amsterdam topped the Billboard Blues Album Chart, a chart that she has reached six times. Her latest work with Bonamassa was the 2018 album Black Coffee. Hart has had two number one singles in Denmark, "As Good as It Gets" and "Learning to Live", and a double platinum-selling album, Leave the Light On. The first released album with the Beth Hart Band, Immortal, was released in 1996 through Atlantic, scanning 13,000 copies and featured the single "God Bless You". Hart started playing clubs in Hollywood at the age of 15, and eventually enlisted bassist Tal Herzberg and guitarist Jimmy Khoury for Beth Hart and the Ocean of Souls, which was recorded in 1993. It includes "Am I the One" (which later appeared on her first official record Immortal) and a pop-rock cover of the Beatles' "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds".
