Biography
Originally from New Zealand, Natasha Bedingfield grew up in southeast London, where she and her siblings were raised around music. By their teens, Natasha, brother Daniel, and sister Nikola had formed a group. It didn't last, but the experience encouraged the Bedingfields to keep pursuing music. Daniel scored a hit with the single "Gotta Get Through This," and the following year it was Natasha's turn. Unwritten, her first album, debuted at number one on the British charts. 2007's N.B. was never released in the U.S. Instead, a reworked version -- half of N.B. plus six new songs -- found its way onto American shores as Pocketful of Sunshine in early 2008. ~ Johnny Loftus
