CHE' AIMEE
Canadian singer songwriter has been turning heads and wooing
audiences across Canada most of her life. Being gifted with an
unmistakable, beautiful voice and the ability to write heart
wrenching songs, this young performer has been displaying her
unusual amalgamation of folk, alt rock and roots at every chance
she gets.
Ché began singing and playing guitar at the early age of 10,
unbeknownst to her family, and it wasn't until 6 years later than
any of the people in her life even knew she could sing. So when
she took up a weekly residence performing at Cafe Montmartre in
2001, she surprised all who had the opportunity to hear her.
Word spread throughout Vancouver of this local treasure and
each week she played to an ever growing audience. Still one to
shy away from a crowd and prone to bouts of extreme stage fright,
she took this opportunity to overcome her fear of being in the
spotlight and master the art of showmanship.
For someone who took time to discover that her true calling was
on a stage. Ché took to performing quickly and deftly. Her shows
are some of the most honest and inspiring anywhere; presenting
lyrics and melodies that turn an audiences thoughts inwards. Her
effortless ability to charm and connect with a crowd is one that
has taken her far as an artist.
After several years performing throughout the Greater Vancouver
Area and spending her summers playing in the Yukon Territories,
Ché left to travel Europe and experience more of what the world
had to offer. Busking from country to country and meeting other
musicians from all walks of life, she started writing songs for
upcoming demos, some of which appear on her 2009 debut album
'Underachiever'. Arriving back in Vancouver, she recorded a
three song Demo with local musician Tim Readman and a year
later recorded her first 7 song EP 'lights out' with producer Ryan
Hauschild.
In 2007 Ché caught the ear of musical legend David Foster
through her triumphant win of his British Columbia Star Search.
Through this she has the opportunity to share a stage with
Michael Bublé and perform with David foster at his yearly charity
gala. She was then rushed to LA to write and record with industry
heavyweights Greg Wells and Kara DioGuardi.
With a Warner Music recording contract on the table, Ché took a
break from the whirlwind adventure and took some time to really
think about what it was that she wanted and needed musically
and although the offer was impressive and very alluring she knew
the had more to learn and write before she could sign on to
anything.
Now completed, Ché's debut solo album; Underachiever, has her
displaying one of the strongest collections of songs to come out of
an independent act in years. Having idols such as Cat Power, Nick
Drake and Jeff Buckley to contend with; Che has aspired for a
long time to create something that is as pleasing to the soul as it
is to the ears. Endeavoring to create “something that has its own
form of genius” as opposed to another pop diva record that
revolves less around content and more around presentation.
Underachiever's both rootsy and contemporary feel is the result of
this inspiration, conveying both the heartbreak and the joy of life
as seen through her own experiences.
While there are many achievements worthy of celebration in her
burgeoning career, this driven songstress reveals that above all
else, she is most proud of the fact that she is following her own
path.
