Close your eyes and listen. You'll hear throwback soul, orchestral chamber pop, and dazzling rock and roll, all tied together with the mesmerizing, one-of-a-kind voice that belongs to Charlene Kaye. Equally inspired by folk greats such as Nina Simone and Karen Carpenter as well as current eclectic luminaries such as the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Belle and Sebastian, and Andrew Bird, her music is a mishmash of generations and genres, classic with a contemporary edge, fitting with the times yet unmistakably timeless. With her talented five-piece band behind her, Charlene delivers the force of her powerful and alluring vocals, delivering gentle folk against growling rock, soaring strings above driving hooks and rhythms, with her distinct charm and magnetic presence tying it all together. Hailed as "an indie spirit headed for greatness" (the Michigan Daily), she continues to conquer audience after audience in her hometown of New York and beyond. It's going to be a wonderful ride.
