ABOUT ME

My name is Chantelle:) I'm an ambient/folk singer songwriter, I am also in a guy/gal Americana duo called Kamp Camille.

I love Southpark, THE WIRE, heads up poker, solving problems, playing music, writing music, listening to music, yoga, talking with my mother and brother on the phone, nice conversations that go everywhere but where I thought they would go.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to see all kinds of people encouraged to make money. I think it's scary that most artists are discouraged from being able to make a living off of their contribution to this world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I make it up to the Northwest I use couch surfers often, we also have folks come and stay at our house as well. We had someone staying on our couch for some time, but then we moved. And have no couch...but if you are in town and would like me to come to your show, or just grab a few drinks and I'm not on tour I'd love to!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Always ended up having a really good time!

Teach, Learn, Share

As part of my personal philosophy I give 5% of my profits to something I started called "Money Be Green" I give money to other artists via $50 "grants minis" for their necessities and artistic needs.
