Camille Bloom:

CAMILLE BLOOM

Seattle-based, Gibson endorsed musician Camille Bloom has performed at premiere venues in eight different countries including Canada, the U.S., Germany, Netherlands, England, Denmark, Belgium and Ireland. Combining percussive guitar and a voice that can “purr and wail” (Victory Review), “Camille’s music can make even the rain dance.” (Mike Galaxy – Indy Hits promotion). The powerhouse singer/songwriter has been said to sound ”like Ani Difranco dipped in maple syrup”. (Spokane Inlander).

Once a high school teacher, Camille was lured out of her education career by an investor who promised her thirty to fifty thousand dollars if she would leave her job. Camille immediately applied for leave in the district and after successfully negotiating a contract set up a meeting date with the investor to sign all of the paperwork and make it official. Unfortunately, the investor never showed up to sign the contract and was never heard from again. Having already given notice at her job with a year’s sabbatical, Camille had nothing to do but give it her best shot on the road and see where it would lead.

In the last eight years, Camille has had songs licensed for use in twenty one shows on a variety of channels including MTV, E! and Oxygen. Additionally, she has completed over 30 national / international tours and has had her music played on over 40 major and college radio stations throughout the U.S. and Western Europe. She also charted on the European FAR (Freeform American Roots) Charts in 2009 with other music greats Bob Dylan, Steve Earle and Iron & Wine. She won the “Best Female Indie Artist” at the Ladylake Music Awards in 2010.

Camille’s last full length release Never Out Of Time was released in 2011 and she enlisted the help of star producer Martin Feveyear, whose production credits include REM, Presidents of the United States, Rosie Thomas and Brandi Carlile. The album and the artist were lauded nationally by Music Connection, The Advocate, M for Musicians and more. Her new EP Big Dreams is scheduled for a November 2013 release.

Known for her incredibly dynamic voice and edgy acoustic rock, Camille’s U.S. touring has included gigs at New York City’s Bitter End, Boston’s Club Passim, Seattle’s Triple Door, Tractor, and Crocodile, Los Angeles’ The Mint and over 150 other rooms spanning the nation. She has shared the stage with numerous acts including Smashmouth, SUGARCULT, Metric, Carbon Leaf, Brandi Carlile, Mike McCready (Pearl Jam) and many more. The Seattle Gay News calls Camille “A dynamite performer who combines a mix of twisted acoustic funk rock with haunting melodies and soaring vocals.”

In addition to touring full time with club dates and festival appearances, Camille takes time out of her schedule to direct a Rock N Roll camp for kids in Seattle – and she also makes regular stops at youth centers – performing and talking to kids about using positive outlets such as music to cope with life’s struggles.

Camille has gained an avid and adoring fanbase with her high energy and intensely personal show. She loves touring at home and abroad and has booked herself on numerous European tours.
