Sharlene grew up in Junction City, Oregon and Southern California. Until now, her talent for songwriting and performing was only accessable to her close friends and family and the many fans who enjoyed her in small clubs. At the urging of those close to her this reluctant artist finally recorded 11 of her many songs; the end result... "Midnight Madness."

"Midnight Madness" is the first collection of original songs composed by novice recording artist Sharlene. The title song "Midnight Madness" has a hard rock driven beat and style along with "Faded Q's","Butterflies Upside Down" and "Hidden Treasure." "Pavement", "Run, Run, Run", and "Reason" get their roots from rock/country/folk and can only be described as true Americana. "Off My Back" is a bluesy fun song with attitude guaranteed to get your feet tapping. "Two Ships Passing" is a unique mood piece destined for a movie soundtrack someday. "Dreams" and "Mr. Man" are ballads extolling the healing power of love.
