Camela Widad Kraemer: Reviews
"Kraemer's graceful, confident vocals, that at times sounds like a hybrid of Natalie Merchant and Fiona Apple, draw in listeners with her melodies and gutsy sound, makng them forget that they're listening to anything other than an amazing folk-rock band. The inspirational lyrical content comes through on each song. A must listen for fans of folk-rock."
A unique voice in music today, hers is one that should definitely be heard.

Although the best way to experience Camela's music is watching a live performance, her essence shines through on her debut album, "Eve". Her voice is powerful and bright, with a unique texture I cannot compare to any other singers I have heard. Her lyrics are inspirational and full of promise. This is great music for a roadtrip, or even just an antidote to a bad day. For anyone wanting to bypass the trendy "chick-with-guitar" genre and cut straight to heartfelt folk music--music from and for the soul, this music is for you.
You're fun, 'good energy' as they say. I've enjoyed all of your songs and I look forward to having you back someday.

Incredible. The sound is unique, but somehow seems familiar, thus it is very comfortable and easy to listen to. Her voice is rich and full of heart, I love hearing it. Everyone should hear this CD, it will enrich your lives, make you smile, bring a tear to your eye.
Camela Widad has a stunning and soulful voice that always manages to lift me above my daily cares and troubles. Her songs are so inspiring and heartwarming, it's like groovy medicine for the soul ! I challenge anyone to try and keepĀ themselves from singing along. It's impossible.

Listening to Camela's music is like breathing fresh air into the room. No matter what mood I am in, the music provides me with inspiration. I find myself singing along out loud-sometimes a little too loud and then I really have to giggle.
Camela's music is full of heart, soul, inspiration, tranquility, fun, love.....it has it all-which is rare to find these days. Thanks for making such great music!!!

"I love all of Camela's work. Since I was first turned on to her in 2000, I have been hooked. Great stuff."
I have loved listening to Camela perform for many years. It has been amazing to see the change in her voice over the years. Listening to her first CD, 'Eve', was such a thrill for me. It was like you were at a party and every one was having a great time. 'Call to the Soul' has a little different sound. Not only the vocals but the music was a little more melo. 'Food for the Traveler', her, third CD has yet a different sound with the full band again. Each song tells a story. It is a more in-depth CD. Camela's music is "feel good" music.
