Josephine Cameron
Josephine Cameron’s lyrical voice and genuine style have been compared to Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Edie Brickell, and The Bangles’ Susanna Hoffs. Josephine has gained much local acclaim for her musicianship, and has been featured numerous times on TV and radio shows such as WCLZ’s “Area Code 207”, WMPG’s “Us Folk”, and Harpswell Television’s “Live from the Sound”. Recently, she can be heard singing the “Shine On Me” campaign for Martin’s Point Health Care. Josephine has also begun to receive some national attention, receiving the FOSTEX Artist of the Month Award, and two Garageband Awards for her song “Long Night”, as well as surpassing 15,000 downloads on iTunes and similar music sites. Her third album,
Close Your Eyes
, is a carefully chosen set of lullabies drawing on samba, pop, folk, and gospel influences. Her newest album,
American Songs volume 2 is a collaboration with Nashville singer/songwriter
Carter Little, and builds on Josephine's growing catalog of traditional American folk music. Exploring themes of travel, this collection includes songs of escape like "Gum Tree Canoe" from the early 1800's, songs of searching like Stephen Foster's famous "Oh Susanna," and songs of spiritual pilgrimage and hope like "Unclouded Day" and "Goin' Home," from Dvorak's New World Symphony.
