Annie Stela

After a childhood spent writing poems and songs in quiet suburban Michigan, Annie Stela moved to LA at the age of 22. She got a hard core-case of mono and some serious culture shock - but once she recovered, she was signed to Capitol Records. She recorded her debut full-length record, Fool, with producer Bill Bottrell (Sheryl Crow, Shelby Lynne). Influenced by artists like Billy Joel, Ben Folds Five, and Tori Amos, Fool chronicles Annie's journey from Michigan to LA and, as such, from childhood to adulthood. Before Fool could make it to the public, Capitol experienced a devastating label shake-up. Seeing a bad road ahead, Annie left Capitol and took her record with her. She released it independently on iTunes in early 2008.
