"Music
has the ability to cut through to the
heart and soul of a human being. The
mind becomes unaware of what sheer
ecstasy has taken over and has no choice
but to succumb to it..." -
Chanell
There is no doubt that music is a great
passion of Chanells'. It has always been
a driving force within her which has
brought forth a hunger for life; to
perservere and endure through
overwhelming obstacles.
Chanell has always been involved in the
arts throughout her life. Dancing,
singing, and acting have always been her
talents, and she takes pride in all!
Ever since the age of 6, Chanell has
taken dance, such as
ballet, jazz, modern dance and hip hop.
Every style has something to offer, and
all have challenged her body in ways
that have helped to "keep her on
her toes!" Chanell has also danced
on the Much Music dance show,
"Electric Circus," and
appeared on the night time show,
"Sex, Toys and Chocolate."
Being in front of the camera is very
exciting for Chanell, and she has always
found herself very comfortable being on
set. Chanell has also appeared in a few
music videos and has done some modelling
in the past.
In high school, Chanell was very much
involved in Choir, (it was one of her
favorable subjects). Shortly afterwards,
Chanell and her 3 students formed a
band, and performed various pop music
for close family members and friends.
This was when her love for performane
expanded, and she knew that
this was what she wanted to do; to
captivate an audience. Chanell was
briefly taking vocal lessons at the
Royal Conservatory of Music for
classical singing at this time, and,
although enjoyed it, knew that she
needed something more upbeat and up to
date with her style. So, she moved on.
During this time, Chanell was studying
Psychology in University and was also
becoming trained in Psychotherapy. This
was a very interesting and creative
time, for she learnt a great deal about
human nature. What stood out most about
this time was the constant reminder
within her that she had a
dream to pursue, a desire to fulfill,
and a motivation to touch others through
music!
Chanell currently works with Vocal
Coach, Diana Yampolsky, who is very
aware of the connection between mind,
body and Spirit, and trains accordingly.
Chanell's music style is a mixture
between POP and R&B, and she
admires artists such as Madonna, JLo and
Alicia Keys. One day, Chanell hopes
to inspire and challenge people through
her music and creativity.
To date, Chanell has completed a demo
with Diana, and feels that her
talents and ambition will take her to
places where she is meant to be...
