About Me

Hi! I'm a Swedish singer based in London.
Vocally I'm mainly musical theatre but I love singing anything from rock to folk to lighter classical stuff.
I fell in love with musical theatre when , at the age of 4, my grandfather took me to see "Kiss me Kate" in Sweden. After that I spent days walking round my day-care centre belting "-OH, IIII HATE MEN!" My first posterboys on my bedroom wall however were Mozart and Kiss.
I moved to London at 21 and after a few years I was fortunate enough to work in the West End as "Esmeralda" in Notre Dame de Paris and to my mothers horror when she saw me, I was raped in a cage by an angry priest in blue eyeshadow and subsequently hung. Since then I've done gigs in France,Sweden, Hungary and sailed the high seas with P&O Cruises.
At the moment I do cabarets with my friend Claire which is loads of fun and the rest of the time, I'm auditioning.
I love to meet other artists and songwriters from all over the world so please feel free to message me if you want to collaborate on any project!
Thanks for checking out my little site!/ Camilla :)

Member Since: 1/18/2007
Band Website: stephanie-evans.com
Band Members: Just me, flying solo.
Influences: My mother: (what a woman!) Liza Minelli: The genious and talent, the strength and the pure survival skill of her... Dolly Parton: Fake on the outside, but the most genuine one on the inside. Stephen Sondheim, Jim Steinman, Mozart, Michel Legrand, Claude-Michel Schonberg, Stephen Schwartz, Andrew Lloyd Webber: Each in their own right a musical genious The Dixie Chicks: Fantastic, talented ladies playing good honest country. Tina Arena, Patti Russo,Bonnie Tyler, Cher: voices of death, don't think either of them ever hit a bum note in their life... Celine Dion: Ok, some of her music is cheese on cheese, but she has better command of her instrument(voice) than most... ELVIS: The world is a worse place without you in it. You will always be the King and the Entertainer...Meatloaf: I love you and everything about you, enough said, Kiss: You RULE!!! Anything and anyone who really ROCKS! Anyone brave enough to keep fighting the good fight even when everything feels impossible... My friends: Amazing people, all beautiful and generous and talented, who somehow manage to love me inspite of my faults and make every day of my life worth living. You make me feel truly blessed!
Sounds Like: I don't really think I sound like anyone but myself, but who am I to judge? I suppose you could say that I have rather a traditional Musical Theatre voice with a bit of a folky twang to it sometimes. But I must confess that I do love a good belty rock song you can just go mad on!...
