Anonymous17 is a Chicago-based female artist stretching genre boundaries with her eclectic sound and powerful voice that is ideal for her style of music. She displayed a keen interest in music while she was still a kid, and it was actually her co-producer, Chip Altholz, who discovered her innate talent for singing and encouraged her to delve deeper into the creative process by having her sing to music written by a friend while developing her own lyrics. She is now a practicing singer-songwriter with her sights set on reaching and surpassing higher expectations.
