Soulful is quite probably the most fitting word to describe Anastacia's music, singing style, and also her approach to her songwriting.
Anastacia Newkirk was born in Chicago on the 17th of September 1973.
Two years later, in 2002, Anastacia topped the success of her first album with the release of 'Freak Of Nature', which boosted her total worldwide sales to over 20 million!
When it seemed she was on a roll, Anastacia took a blow that would have truly knocked the wind out of any ordinary woman.
Anastacia followed this shortly after (Nov. 2005) with the release of 'Pieces Of A Dream', a greatest hits compilation with a few new songs to boot.
