The best-selling album of the year, “Back to Black” in 2007, also featured the hit single ‘Rehab,’ which was also named the best song of the year by “TIME” Magazine. The jazz-influenced album became platinum-certified in the U.K., and Winehouse was nominated for several awards, winning an Ivor Novello Award for ‘Best Contemporary Song’ for the single ‘Stronger Than Me’ in 2004. The following year, her debut album “Frank” was released in the U.K., and her sultry voice catapulted the album, and the singer, to instant fame. In 2002, she was signed by Simon Fuller’s company 19 Management and later signed a record deal with Island Records. It was after this that her friend and fellow soul singer Tyler James sent her demo tape to music producers and agents that got her noticed. Winehouse’s first professional singing role was as the featured female vocalist in the National Youth Jazz Orchestra in 2000. During this time, she also started working with World Entertainment News Network as an entertainment journalist. When Winehouse was 15, she changed schools again, attending the BRIT School and writing and performing with a jazz band. After four years at the school, she received admission to the Sylvia Young Theater School. With a keen interest in music from childhood, Winehouse was enrolled at the Susi Earnshaw Theater School to improve her voice and learn tap dancing. She came from a family with a background in music with several relations who were professional jazz musicians. Her elder brother, Alex Winehouse, is a former online music journalist.
