Amanda McBroom

This Los Angeles-based songwriter and cabaret singer is probably best known for her song "The Rose," a hit in 1979 for Bette Midler. McBroom has also appeared on stage in "Jacques Brel Is Alive and Well" and "See Saw," and also tours regularly. Her debut album, Growing Up in Hollywood with Lincoln Mayorga, was a best-seller for the prestigious Sheffield Labs label, as was her followup, West of Oz. ~ All Music Guide
