Charmaine

Some artists claim their entire life has been immersed in ministry and music from a young age, but there are very few who can claim they were literally born into it. Charmaine was born in the United States while her parents were on tour with their music ministry from Australia, Endless Praise (EP), one of only two professional full-time music ministries in Australia. She grew up on the road immersed in worship music and ministry. It was no surprise when Charmaine found her voice and became the youngest singer in EP, and her songs received substantial recognition and airplay through out Australia. At age 14, having written most of the songs, Charmaine recorded her first solo record showing an unusual grasp of the Gospel and a profound sense of spiritual direction. The record hit shelves in Australia a year later and sold into the thousands, an impressive debut for an independent Christian artist in Australia. This record caught the ear of music executives in Nashville, TN, and Charmaine and her family arrived in Music City in the summer of 2000. Signed to a record deal by Elevate Records, a sister label of Inpop Records, Charmaine was well on her way to extending her ministry into the U.S. Record label executives were not alone in the recognition of this talented young woman with a heart for God, as she was quickly asked to tour with and sing back up for Christian music veteran, Rebecca St. James. Charmaine has been able to travel the world taking her ministry to millions on several of Rebecca St. James’s tours. Charmaine released herself titled album into the U.S. market in August of 2002. Her first radio single, “All In All,” was in the top 10 on the CHR Charts for 14 consecutive weeks and radio stations all across America began asking, “Who owns this beautiful voice?” In 2004 she began working on her second project to be released in 2006; Charmaine has written all the songs and co-produced the record. Charmaine’s reach in ministry goes beyond her music as she was featured in Lifeway’s series FUEL, released in December 2004, This visual Bible study guide for teenagers is just another way to show Charmaine is determined to reach her peers with the message of Christ whether through her music, her story telling, or her beautiful spirit that shines the minute she steps onto the stage. In 2007 Charmaine was invited to be a part of the Max Lucado 3:16 project, 3:16 Songs of Hope, along with other well known Christian artists such as Michael W. Smith, Third Day, Jars of Clay, Jaci Velasquez, and more. Her song “In Him” written specifically for the project can be found on the CD that is now available in all retail outlets. Now over 1-million people have heard the voice of Charmaine as she's toured across the U.S. and throughout over 30 countries internationally with a number of well known Christian recording artists. With a voice that is calmingly soulful and elegant, her music blends mellifluous notes and words that stir your soul and leave one asking deeper questions and craving answers. Listen at Last.fm
