Sharon, Lois & Bram
Sharon, Lois & Bram (also known as Sharon, Bram & Friends or Sharon & Bram) was a Canadian children's musical trio comprising Sharon (Trostin) Hampson, Lois Ada (Goldberg) Lilienstein, and Bramwell "Bram" Morrison that formed in 1978, in Toronto, Canada.
==Group formation==
Sharon Hampson, Lois Lilienstein, and Bram Morrison began their singing careers as individuals, and met while performing for the "Mariposa in the Schools" program. The three performers quickly discovered that they shared a common philosophy about creating quality music for people. In 1978, with $20,000 borrowed from family and friends, they recorded their first album ''One Elephant, Deux Éléphants'', released by Elephants Records and distributed by A&M. The folk-style album, with its eclectic musical mix, was an instant success and became one of the fastest-selling children's albums ever produced in Canada.
The group began touring Canada in 1979, in ''The Greatest Little Touring Super Show'', and in 1980 appeared in the United States at the Lincoln Center Out-of-Doors Festival, in New York City. The group had a diverse musical sound and themed songs which included folk songs, school yard chants, pop tunes, camp songs, singing games, rounds, and nonsense rhymes that were performed in diverse styles such as jazz, swing, calypso, rock'n roll, country, and folk. Their music was for families and leaned heavily towards participation and sing-along styles. This style was further developed in their television program, ''The Elephant Show'', which began airing on CBC in 1984.
Producer Bill Usher contributed to their unique singing style.〔 Usher was looking for a more energetic twist to children's music and a shift away from the previous traditional folk style. Usher used a technique in which songs were no longer filtered through personalities and trademark sounds of the performer. Instead, he sought songs that drew upon various musical styles, such as rock'n roll, Broadway, and calypso. This sound was regarded as completely new. Sharon, Lois & Bram's appeal crossed a variety of demographics.
