“Music is my life“ - CARMEN REECE!

HOTT AND RAW EXCLUSIVES!

CARMEN REECE’s ability to connect on a gut level with her listeners – whether she’s busting out a club bumper like “Right Here” or unwrapping a slow-burn piano ballad like “Long Goodbye” – is something she’s always admired in her heroes, powerhouse vocalists she calls “the divas.” In fact, as she puts the finishing touches on her debut album, ‘Love In Stereo’, ground-floor fans are hailing her as “Diva 2.0″ and drawing comparisons to Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, and Beyoncé. That designation is bolstered by Carmen’s having been “discovered” by multi-platinum producer-songwriter Mark Feist, known for his work with the likes of Beyoncé, Céline Dion, and Natalie Cole, among other game-changing singers.

In HOTT AND RAW EXCLUSIVE! Carmen talks about how she met super music-producer Mark Feist, her upcoming album “Love In Stereo”, and the experience she had opening a show for Kelly Rowland.

WHAT‘s HOTT!!! ABOUT CARMEN REECE!?!

An early adaption to destiny!

That Carmen’s so far along creatively at such a young age is not surprising when one considers that this iTunes-era blue-eyed soul singer began playing piano and flute in early childhood, earned a place in the National Children’s Orchestra of Great Britain at 11, and at 16 was admitted to the celebrated Brit School (which has also nurtured Adele, Leona Lewis, Amy Winehouse and Imogen Heap).

Born and raised in London, Carmen thinks she may have inherited her facility for piano from her paternal grandfather, an accomplished player who died before she was born. She began private piano and flute lessons at age seven. “My parents didn’t have to push me to practice,” she says. “I loved it.” Her presence as a flautist in the National Children’s Orchestra ensured plentiful performance opportunities. It was also during this period that her drive and professionalism began to emerge.

Not that she didn’t know how to cut loose. Carmen studied dance on the weekends for years, including ballet and tap. When she wasn’t corralling her fellow students into video-style extravaganzas, Carmen could be found at the piano.

Vocal inspiration came from Toni, Mariah, Whitney and Céline, as well as Boyz II Men and Michael Bolton. Carmen’s real breakout as a creative force, however, coincided with her entry into the Brit Performing Arts & Technology School.

On her own, meanwhile, Carmen earned U.K. radio support for the track “How Freaky Can You Get”, even performing it live on the BBC’s Radio 1 for a national listening audience. She subsequently made waves with the song “You Got Me”, the video for which enjoyed widespread circulation.

Then she reconnected with Feist, whom she’d met shortly after her graduation from The Brit School.

She looks forward to playing these new songs for fans, knowing the shared experience will imbue them with even greater electricity.
