Full Bio
Sharon Renold is a Swiss-born, Seattle-based bassist, vocalist, songwriter, producer, and educator whose work moves fluidly between artistry, collaboration, and performance.
Her musical voice is shaped by a wide range of influences, from world music and soul to indie, progressive, and contemporary pop. That range shows up not only in her playing, but in the way she writes, arranges, and supports a song. Whether on stage, in the studio, or in front of a camera, her work is grounded in instinct, precision, and emotional clarity.
Sharon has been featured as an educator and personality on Scott’s Bass Lessons, one of the world’s largest online bass education platforms, and has appeared alongside some of the most respected names in the bass world. She has also served as guest faculty at Berklee Bass Weekend, sharing her perspective with the next generation of players in both workshop and masterclass settings.
As a performer and collaborator, she moves easily between roles: sidemusician, featured artist, writer, producer, and bandleader. Her approach is less about occupying space for its own sake and more about understanding what the music needs, then delivering it with conviction.
Sharon was part of the Berklee Indian Ensemble project that received a Grammy nomination at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards, and she is currently finishing her debut solo album, Round the Bend.
