As a composer, multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and unique interpreter of the jazz tradition, she is quickly becoming one of the standard bearers for the form, making a considerable and dynamic contribution to the legacy of jazz while paying tribute to its heroes. Fluid and powerful on the tenor saxophone and highly inventive as a vocalist, she also plays bass clarinet, flute, and piccolo. Her rich sax sound has been compared to Joe Henderson and Dexter Gordon, while her vocal approach—including an impressive scatting ability—has been classified alongside those of Ella Fitzgerald and Betty Carter.

❝ I’m scared of this lady’s scatting! ❞
— Al Jarreau, Grammy Winning Vocalist

❝ Camille has a warm and beautiful sound...a creative improviser. She swings, has good time and plays with taste. Keep your ears on this young lady! ❞
— Russell Malone, Grammy Winning Guitarist
