Artist Biography by Bradley Torreano

Ill Ease was actually a one-woman band created by Elizabeth Sharp. Sharp was born in Maryland on December 14, 1971. A neurological disorder that caused her brain to read music as pleasure led Sharp to learn several instruments in her teen years. After playing in several bands, she had a memorable stint with New Radiant Storm King as a drummer. She relocated to New York City, shared a practice space with a friend with recording equipment, and started getting notices for her photography. She also began recording herself, mostly by her lonesome out of convenience, but also because she didn't want anyone else involved, anyway. So, Sharp became the sole member of Ill Ease. The project debuted with Live at the Gate in 1998, followed by Circle Line Tours in 1999 and Live at the Holiday Sin in 2002. The latter, recorded in an Atlantic City motel room, upped Ill Ease's profile considerably. Too Pure noticed, signing Sharp/Ill Ease and issuing Exorcist in August '04.

SKINNER PILOT This Parking Lot Is Being Videotaped 1996

Last FM Biography

Elizabeth Sharp (Ill Ease, New Radiant Storm King) played bass and shared vocal responsibilities with Andrew Zarou (The Deer Park) who played guitar. But each geographical shift brought with it a line-up change in the drummer's seat.

Skinner Pilot was formed in Amherst, Massachusetts in 1993. The band re-located several times, first to Athens, Georgia, next to Minneapolis, Minnesota, and eventually by 1997, to Brooklyn, New York.

Andy Monteleone, Steve Healey (Frances Gumm), Roddy Elliott, and Liz Bustamante (Spouse, Addicted to Fiction) all played drums in Skinner Pilot.

The band released one full-length cd, "This Parking Lot is Being Videotaped"; two 7" singles (all on the Goodsin label from Boston, Massachusetts); and appeared on three compilations "Hotel Massachusetts" (Chunk), "The Art of Falling" (Monstro), and "Japanese Rhumba" (Y'akuza).

The group disbanded in 1998.
