Singer Claudette got interested in music on an early age. When she was 11 years old she already wanted to go to the conservatory. Inspired by her uncle who was a concertpianist and motivated by her friends she started her study and graduated in 1996 in Jazz/pop singing.
During and after her study she was a part of many different bands and theater projects such as; The Belushi memorial blues brothers band, The Bandstand, Mendoza Dance Parti, Wim Wollners Innercity Blues Band and the Soul Motown theatershow "R.E.S.P.E.C.T".
In 2001 she was asked to sing on "Sunset", the debut album of guitarist/producer Camiel with whom she performed on the 2003 Haarlem’s jazzfestival. Claudette also featured on Camiel’s second album " On a day like this" and performed with Camiel in 2005 on Cafe Del Mar’s Senso Music Festival in Madrid, Spain.
Claudette is also a mother and teaches singing at a music school, gives workshops to choirs and has her own group of students in Amsterdam. She is making a demo with voice-over recordings because that’s something she is interested in at this moment.
And she is working on repertoire for her own group.
