When it comes to fresh, new talent among the current crop of singer/songwriters, Charity Chapman is quite possibly one
of America's best kept secrets. Her expressive, pitch perfect performances are indicative of a truly unique artist
with an impressive range in both vocals and material. From sweet, soulful ballads to driving, upbeat rockers, her
satisfying, "can't-get-it-out-of-your-head" melodies have a way of pressing the listener's emotional buttons-leaving
them wanting more.
Having performed in some form or other for nearly her entire life, Charity is clearly at home in the limelight. As
a result, her audiences are instantly drawn to this engaging beauty as much by her natural command of the stage as
they are by her hypnotic, passionate vocals. Born in Florida and raised in Colorado, Charity is now based in Los
Angeles, and is progressively carving out a place of her own in the industry.
Several of Charity's songs have been placed in television and film, including the CBS series "The Education of Max
Bickford," MTV's "Celebrities Undercover," the Lifetime TV movie "All You Need," and the upcoming feature film,
"Slap Her, She's French," scheduled for a Fall 2003 release. Aside from winning over fans at her Southern California
performances, she has also managed to get some of her independent recordings played on Los Angeles' KLOS-FM's
"Local Licks" program and Santa Barbara's KTYD-FM's "New Music Mondays." Recently, Charity won KZLA-FM's talent
competition and as a result, opened at the "Country Bash" on Saturday, October 11, 2003. She also played and
sang on the nighttime "Life of Brian" Brian Douglas Show. Then, just this week, she performed and was interviewed
on KZLA's Peter Tilden Morning Show.. She's been a finalist in the prestigious John Lennon Songwriting Contest,
the Great American Song Contest and the Garth Brooks Tribute Songwriting Contest. In addition, Charity was one of
twelve up-and-coming singer/songwriters invited after an extensive nationwide search to participate in ASCAP's
exclusive Pop Songwriting Workshop.
Charity's skill and versatility as both writer and performer clearly come across through her music, much of which
can seamlessly plug into Pop, Rock and even Modern Country. Charity's angelic yet powerful delivery, while uniquely
her own, has garnered her comparisons to respected artists from Sarah McLachlan to Martina McBride to Meredith
Brooks. Her mix of music has resulted in a sound that's radio-friendly, yet still distinctly sets her apart from
the pack. A Music Connection reviewer pegged Charity as having "the emotion of a Rickie-Lee Jones," whose songwriting
"could make the charts with her Faith Hill-like hit potential-there definitely is something here."
