Upcoming Album

'Round The Bend

'Round The Bend is Sharon's debut full-length album, and the clearest picture yet of who she is as an artist. Shaped over the course of nearly five years, the record brings together the full range of her musical identity: bassist, singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist. More than a collection of songs, it marks a turning point. A coming of age in music, built around the decision to stop waiting for life to happen and start moving toward it.

The album moves through loss, fear, reflection, and empowerment, with each track offering a different piece of that arc. Its sound draws from folk, indie, pop, electronic, alternative and broader global influences, often combining those worlds rather than sitting neatly inside any one of them. At its core, 'Round The Bend is about stepping outside old comfort zones, building new ones, and breaking those open too.

Though Sharon is known first as a bassist, this is not a bass-driven showcase record. The priority throughout are the songs themselves: what they need, what they carry, and what serves them best. Across the album, she takes on the vast majority of the creative work herself, handling the writing, production, multi-instrumental parts, and overall sonic direction.

Confirmed contributors to the record include Yogev Gabay on drums, Jonathan Hazan on guitar, Yotam Ishay on piano for If I Could Do It All Over Again, Yoel Genin on rhythm guitar for Round The Bend, and Amira Gill and Lydia Renold on additional vocals for Painted By Numbers.

Currently in its final stages of writing and production, 'Round The Bend is both a milestone and a leap of faith: a record that found its identity alongside the person making it.

Berklee Indian Ensemble

Visit Website

The Berklee Indian Ensemble began in 2011 as a student ensemble founded by Annette Philip (now Zahara), bringing together musicians grounded in or inspired by Indian music. What started at Berklee quickly grew beyond the school, gaining international attention and collaborating with some of the most respected artists in Indian music. In 2017, the ensemble evolved into a professional project, gradually moving from a rotating lineup to its current core members.

Sharon joined the ensemble in 2016, initially rotating on bass and singing in the choir, before her role expanded over the years into a wider creative presence as bassist, vocalist, composer, and arranger. She contributed the fan-favorite original “Aakash” to the ensemble’s debut album Shuruaat, performing both lead vocals and bass on the track. As bassist, vocalist, and composer on Shuruaat, she was part of the Grammy-nominated team behind the ensemble’s debut release.

The ensemble’s sound blends classical Indian vocals, rhythms, and instrumentation with Western instruments and a progressive edge, creating a powerful meeting point between musical worlds. Sharon is also one of the main composers and arrangers on the upcoming second album, which is currently in pre-production and roughly 90% written. With recording planned for October/November 2026 and release anticipated as early as spring 2027, the new record also marks a shift in sound, with a much stronger bass presence than previous releases and plenty for bass players to dig into.

This section can also cover both past and present chapters of the project, including the previous album cycle, live shows, and anything connected to the upcoming work.

Yellow Crane

Yellow Crane can feel more world-building and artist-forward than the BIE section. Mood, identity, sonic character, and visuals can all play a stronger role here.

This section should feel like a distinct collaboration universe rather than just another credit. If BIE is scale and recognition, Yellow Crane is atmosphere and current creative identity.

Artist Collaborations

Selected Projects

This section becomes a compact archive of featured appearances and collaborations. Instead of long individual sections, it lets the breadth of work show up through a curated grid of album or project artwork.

Clicking a tile can later open a clean popup with project details, your role, release year, and links. That keeps the page expandable without letting it become endless.

Foundations

Jazzaar Festival

This closing section feels more reflective and grounding. It adds context to your musical roots and helps explain the ecosystem that shaped your sensibility, without needing to compete in scale with the more current collaboration sections.

Positioned last, it reads less like an active current collaboration and more like part of the foundation behind everything else on the page.

Scott's Bass Lessons

This section anchors the page with the most visible platform-based teaching work: on-camera lessons, course material, educational content, and audience-facing resources created through Scott’s Bass Lessons.

It can hold the scope of your role there while also showing the variety of formats you teach through: interviews, challenges, breakdowns, and structured educational pieces.

Institution

Berklee

This middle section highlights guest faculty work, Bass Weekend appearances, clinics, and any education rooted in the Berklee ecosystem. It can feel a little more institutional and legacy-based than the Scott’s section above.

Instead of another large visual, this one uses a compact photo grid to suggest workshops, masterclasses, and campus-based teaching moments.

Teaching Formats

Private Lessons & Live Workshops

This final section is more service-oriented. Instead of leaning on large visuals, it simply presents the two primary formats clearly and lets the structure feel calm, direct, and useful.

One-to-One

Private Lessons

A space for describing individual teaching, who it is for, what areas you focus on, and how a student might work with you over time. This could also include format details like remote vs in-person, or beginner through advanced support.

Ask About Lessons
In the Room

Live Workshops

A space for clinics, group sessions, residencies, camps, festival education, and one-off in-person teaching formats. This can stay broader and more event-facing than the private lessons side.
