Meredith Brooks was born on June 12, 1958 in Oregon City, USA. In 1995 she signed a recording contract with Capitol Records and recorded her debut album, 1997's 'Blurring the edges'. Her debut single 'Bitch' became the biggest hit of her career, reaching number 2 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, number 6 in the UK singles chart and number 12 in the Dutch Top 40.
Brooks has stated in interviews that 'Bitch' was almost omitted from the album, reportedly because of its title, which could have prevented it from becoming a radio hit. Only in America....!
