singer Charmaine Clamor is a rising jazz star in the U.S., according to the
LA Weekly’s Brick Wahl. He recommended that her recent two-night gig at
Hollywood’s Catalina Bar & Grill as his jazz event pick of the week: “She made a big splash with Flippin’ Out-its hip mix of beautifully arranged standards and jazzed-up Tagalog love songs took the ‘Filipina Singing Sensation’ into the upper reaches of the jazz and world charts. And no wonder: Her husky, sassy tone, languid moves and unpretentious Pinoy attitude that’s just a tad rebellious have the kind of natural appeal you can’t buy at any music school.”
This acclaim is typical of the critical plaudits that Charmaine, who
grew in Zambales, has been getting since she released her first CD. “Her
debut album, Searching for the Soul, announced the arrival of an
impressive new vocal artist,” raved Don Heckman of the LA Times. Share This
