Clamor is Rising jazz star in the United States: Charmaine, now from Hollywood, performed at jazz venues in New York City, New Jersey and Boston. She top billed the JazzPhil festival / the Filipino Library's in Los Angeles. On September, 2007, at her New York City show, she launched her second album, "Flippin' Out", at the Iridium Jazz Club, with "My Funny Brown Pinay" (to the tune of "My Funny Valentine"). On April 15, 2008, at her Brooklyn debut performance, she treated the mixed crowd to this same theme song/anthem ("Look at my skin -- it's brown… Look at my nose – it's flat").[1] On May, 2008, Charmaine Clamor, as a rising jazz star in the United States, was noted by LA Weekly’s Brick Wahl. Her two-night gig at Hollywood’s Catalina Bar & Grill was Wahl's jazz event pick of the week: “She made a big splash with Flippin’ Out -- its hip mix of beautifully arranged standards and jazzed-up Tagalog love songs took the ‘Filipina Singing Sensation’ into the upper reaches of the jazz and world charts. And no wonder: Her husky, sassy tone, languid moves and unpretentious Pinoy attitude that’s just a tad rebellious have the kind of natural appeal you can’t buy at any music school.” Don Heckman of the LA Times stated that “Her debut album, 'Searching for the Soul', announced the arrival of an impressive new vocal artist.” Charmaine will simultaneously release two CDs later this year -- an album of Harana (serenades) songs, and, a follow-up to "Flippin’ Out" (available on charmaineclamor.com).[2] On May 9-10, 2008, Charmaine Clamor and 8 international jazz artistes and bands will appear with a local group at the third 2008 Miri International Jazz Festival, at ParkCity Everly Hotel.[3] --Florentino floro (talk) 08:12, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
