Ashley Tisdale Discography
American singer and actress Ashley Tisdale has released three studio albums, one soundtrack album, one extended play, and ten singles. Prior to launching a musical career of her own, Tisdale starred as Sharpay Evans on the Disney Channel Original Movie ''High School Musical'' in 2006. Consequently, it became a franchise that released several soundtracks, in which she performed under character. The 2006 soundtrack became the top-selling album in the United States that year. With "What I've Been Looking For" and "Bop to the Top", both singles from that soundtrack, she became the first female artist to debut with two songs simultaneously on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100. The success of the ''High School Musical'' series led Warner Bros. Records to offer her a record deal. After signing with the label, she immediately started work on her debut album. Entitled '' Headstrong'', her first album was released in February 2007, debuted at number five on ''Billboard'' 200, and was later ...

Independent Music
Independent music (also commonly known as indie music or simply indie) is music that is produced independently from commercial record labels or their subsidiaries, a process that may include an autonomous, do-it-yourself approach to recording and publishing.

Charity Record
A charity record or charity single is a song released by musicians with most or all proceeds raised going to a dedicated foundation or charity. George Harrison's " Bangla Desh" single in 1971 is commonly acknowledged as the first ever purpose-made charity single – in this case to help fund relief efforts following the 1970 Bhola cyclone and the Bangladesh Liberation War. The money raised was donated to UNICEF, as were takings from Harrison's all-star charity concert (again, the first of its kind) held at Madison Square Garden, New York, and its spin-off live album and concert film. This is one way of using artistic talent as art for charity. Some of the other early charity records came from the January 1979 Music for UNICEF Concert, with the likes of ABBA's "Chiquitita" and the Bee Gees' "Too Much Heaven" released as singles, all the royalties from which went to UNICEF. Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" in November 1984 began the revolution of the charity record ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
