My name's Chloe, I was born in a creative and musical family and have been singing since I can remember. My first recording as well as my first performance for a large audience experience was at the age of 8, and since then I've played cities like Toronto, Montreal, Quebec City, Halifax, Charlottetown, Thunder Bay, New York City, Nashville, Memphis, and New Orleans. I've recorded in such studios as Muscle Shoals, Sun Studios, and more. Over my adolescence and young adulthood I've had a lot of recording experience, and lots of performing experience in choirs, as backup and as a lead singer.
Over the past two years I've started singing backup vocals for Floyd Factor; canada's pink floyd tribute, including the vocal solo on Great Gig in the Sky, footage of which can be seen on youtube.com.
For about a year and a half, I've been singing lead vocals with my band The Crossroads, performing Soul, Funk, Motown, Blues and more. We'vee done bars around Ontario and private parties.
I've had a few other projects, including Grossman's Gospel Revival (my baby), Strut Check (ska/rock) and coming soon; Third Day Stupids (punk/soul).
Recently, I joined canada..s Neil Young tribute, Powderfinger and I..m playing my first gig with them near the end of april!
I have a very versitile voice, powerfull with good range and I am for hire for various projects. I have expereince recording, performing lead and harmony, acting, dancing and more. I've played charity events for the war resisters, the ASPCA and Kids Helping Kids, I've sang in theatres, bars, festivals, private parties and more. I can do (and enjoy doing) anything from jazz to motown to rock and everything in between.
Hey!! It was great to hear you and meet you at Grossman's the other night! You were fantastic! It was nice to have a moment to chat and smoke outside. Hope to cross paths again soon! Cheers! Hugz, tommy
Hi Chloe, thanks for inviting me to listen. I'm glad I did. You have a wondefrully emotional and sultry voice that fits the genre perfectly. Good luck with all you do and hope to hear of you when i return to Canada in 2008. michael
25 Nov 2007 12:01 Hey guys, Just watched the video on the bulletin. Chloe is fabulous. (I even liked her better than the girls on tour in my Pulse DVD) We have tribute bands all over Kentucky but I will not go see them. I actually hate it when other people do Floyds music. But you guys are awesome, everything I have seen is great. If I am ever in Canada, I will come to see a show.
Hello Chloe, Thanx for accepting our add request and welcome to our Australian page... You have a beautiful voice..Very much enjoyed listening..Particularly like your Stormy weather..Take care and thanx again.. Jenny & Tony ..She SaiD..//Hillbilly Dix.. Gold Coast AUSTRALIA
Hello there, you may not remember me but I was one of the sax players in Speedy Tricycle with Lowell! Found your space here and sounds great, you have a beautiful voice! I also saw a video of you doing Great Gig in the Sky and you nailed it! Actually, I was trying to get to play with the Pink Floyd cover band you sing for but I'm too busy to do it this summer...but maybe in the fall or something...anyways peace!
Y'know, every time I hear these torch somg tracks Chloe, I am just astounded by the depth of your gift. You're voice is so much wiser than your years, if I may say so....
Hope you're enjoying a Sun. night off, and please give our best to Carla on this Mom's Day!!
