As she neared the end of her teens, Prettyman honed her songwriting skills a la Ani DiFranco, and began playing at San Diego nightspots, to surfer-rock-friendly crowds. A tour and relationship with Jason Mraz followed after she secured a spot on the soundtrack to the sleeper surf movie, <i>Shelter</i>, with the track "Anything At All." In 2005, Virgin Records released <i>twentythree</i>, her debut album, which showcased a funky, Sublime-like acoustic sound. Tristan's second offering, <i>Hello</i>, offered a fine compromise between the sultry sounds of Norah Jones and the straight-forward pop of Colbie Caillat. - Rachel LandySinger-Songwriteren720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 10:38:11 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7243038&rws=%2Ftristan-prettyman%2Fmusic-videos.rss Growing up in Del Mar, California, Tristan Prettyman lived the quintessential So-Cal lifestyle: surfer by day (placing in local competitions) and model by night (for Roxy/Quicksilver).
