Camille is not new to the music game and has already solidified herself as a sought-after artist on a global scale. It is good to note that she was infused with the musical bug from a very young age. Her mom introduced her to legendary artists like Nat King Cole, Luther Vandross, Sade, Whitney Houston, and more. At the same time her father shared artists Led Zeppelin, Bad Company, and Pink Floyd which she instantly fell in love with. These were the seeds that were planted in Camille’s DNA. From cradling her first Fender Squier to enrolling in music camps like Music Training Center and School of Rock she was on the yellow brick road of pop and rock music. At the age of eleven she was performing with a Pink Floyd tribute band. For Camille music has always been a form of healing and a magical form of expression.
As her journey began, she found herself sharing the stage with acts like Gina Schock, Flo Rida, and Barry Goudreau. She would open for artists like Flo Rida, Ja Rule, C&C Music Factory, Lit, Chris Kirkpatrick of NSYNC, O-Town, LFO, and Jon Anderson (Yes). It was only a matter of time of when she would find herself performing on America’s Got Talent in 2022. When she graced the stage on America’s Got Talent she earned praise from Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum and Sofia Vergara after she belted out her original track “Still In Love”.
“I got the chance to open up for Flo Rida at the Seaport Pier in Wildwood, NJ, as a part of the Pop 2k Tour in 2022, and that was an awesome time as well! That day, I performed a solo set, and I had so much fun! Very grateful for the opportunity! In 2024, I performed at the MontCo Heroes Festival in Montgomery County, PA, and after I performed an original set and sang the National Anthem and God Bless America, I joined the American Vinyl All-Star Band on backup vocals for their performance. Members of the American Vinyl All Star Band include Jeff “Skunk” Baxter (Steely Dan, Doobie Brothers); Barry Goudreau (formerly of the band Boston); Leroy Romans (The Wailers, Third World); Robert “Mousey” Thompson (James Brown Band); Tim Archibald (Peter Wolf, RTZ); and Danny Beissel (Fosterchild)! I was so honored to sing with these iconic rock stars who have played on some of my favorite songs of all time. To say I was starstruck would be an understatement! They were so kind and gracious. It was an amazing experience!”
Since taking on the music scene, she has released a few singles. Only recently she put out a new project a dual single “Braver” and “Facade” which were produced by Dirty Harry Zelnick, Lectriq, and M11SON. One track offers a sentimental side with a warm acoustic flavor while the other jolts you out of your seat with a driving beat and a sense of freedom. Camille does plan on releasing an EP or a full album soon but is for now dropping singles to build up to that task.
Outside of the music scene Camille has also graced the silver screen with her music being featured in the projects like “Finding Christmas” and “7th Secret”. When it comes to
charting her singles her maxi-single “Daydreamer,” reached #2 on the iTunes Top Dance Albums chart. Camille has always surrounded herself with like-minded talents.
“I have to thank Rob Schwartz, the founder of WhoMag distribution (and my distributor), as he was the music supervisor for those films. Rob thought my song Little Lady would be a great fit for “7th Secret” and introduced me to the producer and director of the movie, and the rest is history! The song, I Believe In Miracles, in the movie “Finding Christmas”, was a little different. The movie producers, Bridget and Mike of Philly Born Films (who are amazing!), came to me with an idea for the song they wanted. They shared a short clip of the final scene in the movie, and I hopped on my keyboard to write a song that fits the story and emotion. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have my music featured in those films!”
On the horizon Camille is planning on releasing more singles in the coming months. She also will keep performing in New Jersey/Philadelphia/New York area. On December 19th she will be doing an original set with her band at the Garden State Live concert series at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City inside Sound Waves. Even though she is full-time College student she finds time to balance her music career but is working on planning a tour soon.
