Max Sharam was born in Benalla, Australia, in 1969, and she arrived in the mid-'90s as a singer-songwriter with a flair for the theatrical. Her album A Million Year Girl, on Warner, came out in 1995 and made the top 10 at home, carrying three top 40 singles: "Coma", "Be Firm" and "Lay Down".
"Coma" is the one that broke her, a dramatic slice of chamber pop in which her voice swoops and soars over ornate arrangements, somewhere between an art song and a torch song. It helped earn her eight nominations at the ARIA Music Awards of 1995, where she and Dominic O'Brien won Best Cover Art for the album. She has since worked across disciplines as an artist as well as a musician.
