The
young Anne DeBrie was busy making plans to conquer the world!
Should she take it by force? No, no...Maybe through the Joy of
Music! Yes, that's it!! She reveled in her clever idea. What fun
she would have! But wait...Should she conquer alone? No! She'll
have a partner. He must be strong and mighty and have his very
own guitar! He shall play faster than a speeding bullet, their
voices more powerful than a locomotive. This dynamic duet shall
leap tall buildings in a single bound! But first...

Anne started learning her craft by singing at the top of
her lungs in the crib at approximately 3:00am every morning without
fail. Her excited parents invested in ear plugs. As soon as she
could reach the piano she was creating works of art (with peanut
butter & jelly) and composing short, uplifting numbers such
as "Oh, Grandfather, You Are Dead."
Before
Anne began her career as a singer and songwriter she became the
drummer for an all female band in her native Kansas City, Missouri,
the legendary RubberMaids. The RubberMaids played for three plus
years calling it quits after receiving the RubberMaid Corporation's
coveted "cease & desist" award.
Bouyed
by her resounding triumph, she spent the next 5 years honing her
performance skills with such Kansas City notables as The NightCrawlers,
The Rockafellas and Park Avenue with Marlon Bankston. Feeling
the need for a change of scenery, Anne moved West settling temporarily
in Los Angeles, Ca. There she sang at the House of Blues by day
and disguised as a parking lot employee by night she observed
and wrote of her experience and insights on Sunset Blvd. Despite
her glamorous lifestyle, Anne felt a growing discontent. What
could be wrong? Gradually, it dawned on her-There was too much
sunshine in L.A. and Dub DeBrie was in Portland! She relocated
after a couple of years to Oregon where she and Dub immediately
began recording and gigging together.
