Charlene Kaye announces a string of summer tour dates with Jay Stolar and Julian Velard supporting her iTunes Pop Charting LP Animal Love.
Charlene spent much of the spring crossing the nation with the Team StarKid Apocalyptour, playing a full-band opening set and then joining the StarKid band on guitar. VH1 praised that "she held a tight grip on the crowd. Her set ended with 'Animal Love I,' an electrifying anthem (and the best song of the entire evening) that seemed fitting for a theater of people who had been told to expect end of the world."
For a preview of what to expect from Charlene Kaye's Animal Love LP and live show, check out the dance-tastic video for 'Animal Love I' or watch the new video for LP track 'Hummingbird Heart.'
It's been all systems go for Charlene Kaye since releasing her sophomore album Animal Love, which reached #15 on the iTunes pop charts upon its release this May. In addition to touring relentlessly and playing CMJ and SXSW festivals, the ambitious musician/performer has earned enthusiastic reviews for her commanding voice, deft guitar playing and electrifying live shows.
This past November and again in May, she went on two national tours supporting musical theater/internet sensation Team StarKid, gaining her thousands of new fans. Her single 'Dress and Tie' featuring good friend Darren Criss of Glee was featured in a promo for NBC's Chuck, had extensive play on radio stations nationwide, and was selected as official boarding music for Delta Airlines.
With a sound that fuses the grandiose pomp of Queen, the grittiness of Joan Jett, and the sentimentality of Rufus Wainwright, Charlene Kaye is a force whose music is at once classic and contemporary, of the times yet unmistakably timeless.
