Bree Sharp (born December 17, 1975) is an American musician and actress. As of the 2010s, she is the lead vocalist of the electropop band Beautiful Small Machines.

A native of Philadelphia, Sharp studied theatre at New York University before releasing her first album A Cheap and Evil Girl in 1999, which contained the cult single "David Duchovny." Her second album, More B.S. was released in 2002. Beginning in 2005, Sharp began recording music for anime and cartoons dubbed by 4Kids Entertainment. In 2009, she founded Beautiful Small Machines with long time collaborator Don DiLego. Beautiful Small Machines released the EP Robots in Love in 2009 and the album The DJ Stayed Home in 2014.

Sharp was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and learned to play guitar by 15. By 17, she had moved to New York City to study theater at New York University. While in college, Sharp began writing the songs that led to her 1998 record deal with Trauma Records.

In July 1999, she released her first album, A Cheap and Evil Girl. The album's first single, "David Duchovny," garnered a cult following both for its musical qualities and its comical references to the titular actor.[citation needed] Will Shivers and Charles Forsch, production assistants and producers on The X-Files, produced a video for "David Duchovny" featuring myriad celebrities crooning the lyrics including Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Whoopi Goldberg, Alex Trebek, David Spade, all four members of KISS, Gillian Anderson, David Duchovny himself and dozens of others. The video was a hit on the Internet and circulated widely in the underground fan community. The song lyrics were quoted in David Duchovny's later Showtime Network TV series, Californication, in 2011.

In the summer of 1999, Sharp played as part of the Lilith Fair, the all-women music festival created by Sarah McLachlan and headlined by McLachlan and Sheryl Crow. In 2000, Sharp toured with Bush and Moby as part of MTV’s “Campus Invasion Tour” in colleges across the United States.[circular reference]

Sharp's second single "America," is an examination of contemporary American culture.

In 2001, Sharp left Trauma Records, which at least one music journalist attributed to the company's poor management.

In August 2002, she released her second album, More B.S., on her own label, Ahimsa Records. In September 2004, Sharp released Live at Fez, a recording of a May 2003 unplugged performance in New York City, which included the new song, “Waving Goodbye."
