Chanel Cambell who was born in Australia now resides in Nashville. Chanel, 15 yrs. old at the time began collecting vinyls and soon became influenced by many 60’s artists. ” they just seemed completely sold out to something whether it was good or bad. every time i listen to a dylan song i am touched in a new way.”
Inspired by timeless writers from C.S. Lewis to Dylan, from Hemingway to Joni Mtchell.
Chanel set out to find her own voice in the midst of thousands of young nashville hopefuls.
“C.S. Lewis once said ” even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.” All I want to do is write songs filled with honest emotion and then convey them through performance. If I can make one person in a room of 100 people feel something with in them, then I’ve done what I’ve set out to do.”
