Samantha Moore Biography
Samantha Moore (born December 28, 1988) is a Canadian pop-rock singer-songwriter whose songs have been covered by many other artists, including The Clique Girlz, Miley Cyrus and Diana DeGarmo. Moore grew up in Ontario, Canada, and attended East Northumberland High (which is also the name of a song she recorded that was later performed by Miley Cyrus). She began performing in summer singing competitions around Ontario and was 'discovered' in 2002 at age thirteen while competing in the Kingston, Ontario Fall Fair Talent Contest. Six months later she was signed to a standard one record deal with Geffen Records and moved to Los Angeles to write and record music. Samantha collaborated with well known industry songwriters such as Curt Frasca, Sabelle Breer, Kara DioGuardi, Robbie Nevil, Matthew Wilder and The Matrix team of Lauren Christy, Graham Edwards and Scott Spock. By the age of sixteen, Samantha had written and collaborated on more than fifty songs. Many of these songs were recorded, but the release of her debut album was delayed. Moore’s songs “I Thought the World Was Round", and “Replace You" produced by Avril Lavigne's producers Curt Frasca and Sabelle Breer were featured on MTV’s television series, “The Hills”, the latter being included in the series soundtrack release. Her song “Pretty” was featured on MTV’s Laguna Beach. Her first album, “Both Sides of Me” was released in September, 2007 and contained 25 songs, including the original demo that secured her initial record contract, a cover of the Avril Lavigne song "Breakaway", which also proved to be a huge hit for Kelly Clarkson in 2004. The album showcased Moore’s talents as a singer and her abilities with lyrical songwriting, and was a mix of songs dominated by a pop/rock style, along with a few country styled tracks. Her second album, “Finally” was released in August 2008 and contains a number of the more popular tracks from her first album, along with the previously unreleased song “They’re There”. She has signed a million dollar music publishing deal with BMG Music Publishing and has formed her own publishing company, "Sammy Jo Productions Inc."
