From the beginning...Whitney made the hairs on my skin stand up, Aretha taught me about attitude and soul, Mariah made me want to take voice lessons, Madonna made me wonder what a virgin was, Prince made me ask "did he say fuck?", Janet taught me to be sassy, Michael made me want to moonwalk, Stevie Wonder taught me soul and heart and everything else that makes up an amazing artist, Sarah Mclachlan made me think about who I was and wanted to be, Paula Cole made me wanna scream and get angry, Lauryn Hill made me wish I had that much talent, Mary J taught me to be fierce, Fiona Apple taught me about a tortured soul, En Vogue taught me sass, class, and harmony, Meshell N'degeocello makes me wanna turn down the lights and groove, D'Angelo and Maxwell make me wanna turn down the lights and do something else..., BBD made me want to learn all the words to their rap songs, Nikka Costa makes me wanna shake my ass, Rachel Yamagata makes me wanna be honest, Alicia Keyes makes me wish I wrote "If I Ain't Got You", Amel Larrieux taught me jazz, Jill Scott teaches me about beauty in words, Tori Amos makes me wanna take piano lessons, Peter Gabriel sends chills, Annie Lennox makes me want to be brave, Coldplay makes me wish boys were really that sensitive, Justin Timberlake can rock my body anytime, ....I could go on and on...you get it...if it moves, grooves, has soul, honesty, etc...it's got me.
I was born and raised in SoCal, the "valley" to be exact. For those of you familiar with "The Karate Kid", Reseda to be really exact. I grew up singing and dancing to anything with a beat and some soul. "Grease" was the word. I think that's when I truly knew I wanted to be a performer. I used to break out into song and dance hoping others would pop out and join me. I was a dreamer...still am...
It wasn't until college that I realized I wanted to do something with this voice or believed I could. I wrote lyrics and melodies before I could actually play an insturment. I took a few piano lessons and then picked up the guitar and taught myself to play. And the rest is history...
Here's what someone wrote about me after seeing my show........
"Charlene is now a NYC resident, and her presence was as powerful as her music. Being a drop dead looker in her case, may sometimes invite prejudgements, however, musically, ..she didn't dissapoint. Her voice was a powerful one as she delivered her songs with an almost fury and rage, but yet done in sweetness and kindness. The bonus was her humor and ability to connect with an audience in between songs that made it a well rounded performance.(She definately knew how to handle and defuse a drunk heckler)..yea,No flaws..I tried to find them.I want to say her humor was offbeat,maybe it was,but in a good way. Her exit was even offbeat. She finished her performance, packed up her stuff, and left.Yes, just left..as in waltzed out the door never to return. Yea, that's the ticket, leave the audience wondering and wanting more!"
Charlene Lite, How's it going? I just wanted to let you know that my debut "Like I'm Beautiful" is now available on iTunes, on sale for only $5.94 this week!
Hope you have an amazing day! Be blessed, Kelly Murray
Hi Charlene Lite! Heaven & Earth is on hiatus now as Stuart Smith and Richie Onori have joined forces with bassist Steve Priest to reform "Sweet". For those of you unfamiliar with the band, Sweet originally formed in the early 70s and went on to sell over 40,000,000 albums with 11 International Top Ten Hits such as "Ballroom Blitz", "Little Willy", "Love is Like Oxygen", "Fox on the Run", "Teenage Rampage", "Action", "Blockbuster", "Hellraiser" and many others.
This reincarnation of the band reformed last year, playing their first show in June, and went on to play festivals throughout Canada and the States and had played to over 300,000 people before the year was out. During this tour last year they recorded a live CD available on Amazon entitled "Sweet, Live in America" which has received rave reviews - pick up a copy and please Add Sweet As Your Friend On Myspace!
