Artist: Renann, Album: Renann, Song: Sick And Tired

"I get so sick and so tired being overly admired."  Renann is a singer songwriter from Toronto originally.  She released her self titled debut in 1998.  She is an artist on many levels, having worked as an art gallery curator and publisher before deciding to release her first album.  This particular release was quite strong and it won her a spot on the Lilith Fair tour as a result.  The album was produced by Joao Carvalho who also happened to co-write this track, Sick And Tired.  The album also featured the drum work of Howie Beck although not on this particular track. Renann would gain some regional radio play on alternative and college stations.  She played the festival circuit and toured before re-locating to Montreal.  In 2002, she released her sophomore album, Taken With You, which featured songs in both French and English.  There doesn't appear to be any recent music news beyond 2002 on her.  I believe that she runs her own art gallery in Guelph, Ontario now but I'm not 100% certain.  Her discography can still be found at Maple Music.com.  This particular album was selling for $15.  You can hear the song, Sick And Tired, on You Tube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giKAmJRVBiM).  Thanks for reading and enjoy!
