Fefe DobsonFefe Dobson (born February 27, 1985) is a Canadian singer and entertainer. Born in Toronto, Ontario, Dobson cites musical influences such as Judy Garland and Kurt Cobain, although she might be considered comparable to Alanis Morissette, Avril Lavigne, Macy Gray, and Nellie McKay. She trained herself to sing using a karaoke machine her mother got her for her twelfth birthday. Dobson is known for a blend of styles, incorporating her unique voice with heavy electric guitar riffs. Dobson's first album, Fefe Dobson, was released in October 2003 by Island Records. Her first two singles, "Bye-bye Boyfriend" and "Take Me Away", were released well before that date, the latter, particularly, received substantial airplay outside of Canada. Dobson joined Camplified 2003, along with Skye Sweetnam. She has appeared on the soundtracks for Raising Helen and The Perfect Score. In July 2004, she released a download-only digital audio single, "Don't Go (Girls and Boys)." Her album was later reissued with that single added. Dobson is biracial: her mother is white and her father is Black. Dobson's father walked out on the family when she was very young; the song "Unforgiven," on her debut album, is about this. Dobson was the only non-white member of her family growing up, and she had to deal with considerable hate because of her mixed family. In a 2004 MTV interview, Dobson told a story about her older sister being picked on in school because she had a black sister. Discography - Fefe Dobson October 2003
