Vivienne

Group Rating:

Group Genre:

Urban / R & B

�With age comes experience� and �Youth is wasted on the young� � these are two quotes that do not fit Vivienne in any shape or form. This young Dominican singer/actress/dancer/model has achieved more than most people do in a lifetime.

Influenced by the industry�s cardinal R&B vocalists -- Chaka Khan, Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, La India and Faith Evans -- Vivienne�s broad musical range from R&B, hip-hop to dance music has been attracting the attention of the music industry�s heavyweights. Although Vivienne�s commanding riffs have been compared to Faith Evans, T-Boz and Brandy, her unique style and vocal prowess cannot be mistaken. She has honed her craft with two of the industry�s leading vocal trainers, Craig Derry and Clurel Henderson. Reaching within the depths of her soul and real life experiences, her lyrical truths reflect her joys and pains in love and life.

Vivienne started chasing her dream early on in life. She got her first big break dancing on one of America�s most popular dance shows, MTV�s-�The Grind.� Her five-year stint as a featured dancer on the show led to modeling work, music videos, television and movies. When C&C Music Factory was embarking on a tour, Freedom Williams selected Vivienne to replace Zelma Davis as a lead vocalist and she toured for 2 � years domestically and internationally. This stint included performances in nightclubs, radio stations and soundstages in front of audiences up to 10,000 people. The exposure brought Vivienne�s talent to the forefront and her fan base was established. When the legendary Chubby Checker formed a new hip-hop group, �Chubby C and O.D.�, Vivienne was immediately retained by his team. Currently, she is featured in Latin Platinum recording artist Fragancia�s (formerly of the group DLG � Sony) CD �Llego La Fraga!�

Although Vivienne enjoys performing with the industry�s elite, she is out as a solo act and is bringing her dream of sharing her gift with the world into reality. She has proven her ability in acting and modeling but her first true love is music.
