Chanteuse Country US née le 6 Février 1967 à South Lyon (Michigan).
Born into a family obsessed with
country music (who named her after one member of
the Carter Family, and her brother after
Faron Young), Anita Cochran began playing guitar at the age of four. Though
she was born and raised in suburban Detroit, her parents were both originally
from Kentucky. Her father was a local country performer who encouraged his
daughter by bringing her to countless country music festivals. Although she
spent time working for an insurance firm, she continued to perform in bands and
as a solo act, and she caught her first break by being hired to manage a local
recording studio. She sang backing Vocals and engineered many sessions,
recording on her own when she had time.
Although she lacked confidence in her abilities, Anita Cochran and her manager
sent off several demos to the Warner Bros. label. One week later, she was called
to Nashville, where she met with executives and later signed a contract. For her
debut album, Back to You, Cochran wrote or co-wrote all but one of the songs and
played guitar, dobro, banjo, and mandolin on the sessions. The album was
released in April 1997 and spawned four country chart entries, including the
number one hit "What if I Said," a duo with
Steve Wariner. Anita followed three years later
