CHARLOTTE GORDON CUMMING
The daughter of a Scottish clan chief, Charlotte grew up in the far north-east of Scotland. It is from these roots and a life long passion for Africa, where she has strong family ties, that her music stems.
Charlotte has been writing songs since she was a teenager. She was married to Michael Edwards songwriter of the band Live Wire. She performed in Italy with him before moving to New York and playing her own songs in the clubs and bars of Manhattan.
Charlotte has written for other artists in England, but her most recent success was ''Soul Sound'', the Sugababes'' hit single, nominated in 2001 for an MTV award for Best European Single.
Influenced by artists like Peter Gabriel, Sinead O''Connor and Paul Simon, Charlotte has developed her own unique and modern blend of celtic melody and rhythms of Africa. Many of the songs on her new cd ''Mindwalking'' were written in Kenya and South Africa and include the talents of many African musicians.
Charlotte is currently working with singer, Joy Tobing, the runaway winner of Indonesia''s first Pop Idol competition in 2004. She is co-producing Joy''s latest cd with Kevin Poree and has written five of the album''s songs including the title track, ''Rise''.
Joy''s cd is to be released in Europe in mid-summer 2005 and sees her launching her album with a short concert tour. Dates planned also include a concert in Singapore on Singapore Day in August and a solo performance also in Singapore on 3rd December 2005.
Charlotte has had to postpone promotion of her own cd in order to concentrate fully on Joy''s album, but with ''Rise'' now complete, Charlotte can begin to focus her attention on ''Mindwalking''.
As well as press and media interviews, she is planning a performance at the Royal Geographical Society on 16th March 2006 in aid of the charity, TUSK .
Charlotte lives in Devon, England with the writer Nicholas Evans and their young son, Finlay.
