Cammie Ward – Singer, Songwriter

Cammie Ward is a singer-songwriter living in the Charlotte, North Carolina area. Her music is deep, evocative, and piano based with haunting alto-ranged vocals. Cammie first gained her interest in the piano at the age of seven. No, she was not one of those child prodigies, she just really loved music! She started writing her own songs in early high school around the age of fourteen. The subject matter of her music is known to involve concepts of unrequited love as well as self reflection. The overall mood is anywhere from ambient to dark and is meant to move one emotionally whether they pay attention to the overall message or not.

Cammie got into music merely due to her interest in it and its ability to move one’s emotions as well as help one to release their emotions. Her music stands apart from others because it is truly what comes from her heart. She isn’t trying to make a ton of money or write the next catchy pop song. On the contrary she is interested in reaching people who can relate and can get something from listening to her songs.

Cammie normally fleshes out her compositions first by creating a chord progression along with a melody. The lyrics are normally secondary in the process. Then she will normally record a bare bones version of the song. After that it reaches “Bongo” John’s studio where more layers are added to fully complete the piece. Cammie is new to the live music scene but has had a couple of successful shows at the Corkscrew in Birkdale Village located in Huntersville, North Carolina.
