CARMEN HENDRICKS BIO
South African born Rhythmic soul singer Carmen Hendricks performed her first professional show at the age of 5.
Australia provided the opportunity for Hendricks to grow as an artist, and in time to perform and tour with numerous national and international acts including, Kanye West, Kelly Rowland, Rhianna, Tina Cousins, Rhasaan Patterson, Daniel Merriweather and Kate Ceberano, Christine Anu, Musiq Soul Child – just to name a few.
A regular performer on Good Morning Australia, Hendricks has earned respect within the music industry and her Australian fans. Carmen had created a strong interest amongst fellow songwriters, musicians and international DJ’s and it opened the door to the United Kingdom and the creation of Europe’s Summer Anthem ‘Till I See The Sun’ with DJ Jorj.
Following the success of her first house track collaboration, Hendricks went on to release her debut album, ‘Rhythmic Soul Revealed’. Miss Hendricks’ musical tag is a unique blend of Latin, Gospel and Jazz laced with Soul. The album received rave reviews. Carmen went on to collaborate with UK based act Supa Fly signed to Ministry of Sound.
Now back in her Australian hometown of Melbourne, Carmen has completed her next album, “Timing” which is out NOW! She will also be performing at Soul Fest – Australia’s first annual Neo Soul, Jazz & Hip Hop Festival Sunday 18 October in Melbourne. For more information, visit http://www.soulfest.com.au.
Hendricks continues to live her purpose, 'bringing joy and consciousness to humanity through my music’.
Melbourne’s acclaimed rhythmic soul vocal artist Carmen Hendricks has released her long anticipated sophomore album “Timing”, following her successful debut “Rhythmic Soul Revealed” in 2010.
A unique blend of Gospel, Latin and Jazz with a Soul infusion, “Timing” showcases Hendricks’ rich vocal talent with all songs self-written and produced over 2 years.
A collection of 10 tracks inspired by Hendricks’ own artistic journey from debut to follow up album, “Timing” includes the title track – a personal belief of things happening at the right time if you get out of the way and let the universe lead you, along with standouts “How Many Times” – an ode to self-love and respect and “Stella By Starlight” - a modern take on a classic jazz standard.
