A native of Cartagena, Colombia, Carmen immigrated to the United States at the age of two. Her
strong interest in entertainment was evident from the beginning. Her
exposure to many genres of music and breadth of Latin culture has made her
an artist of substance. Carmen is
equally comfortable with many musical styles. She is an outstanding athlete and dancer. She has studied Jazz, hip hop, tap and ballet
dance styles.
Carmen's passion for entertainment was evident from a very early age. She
could be found "front and center" at family and church gatherings. Her
early musical development has allowed Carmen to embrace "her Latin culture with her very own signature style of music",
which is a "reflection of her unity, love and unsurpassed passion for life."
Philosophically, this frame of mind allows her to display a "multicultural richness"
through her music.
She writes her own lyrics and her works constitute a unique sound heard in her lounge-R&B, Pop and Jazz vocals.
In addition to her music projects, Carmen has also enjoyed stage and film
time. Notably, she can be seen performing as the wife of Belgium singing
idol Wim Soutaer in a music video titled
"Let Me Go" filmed in 2009.
Carmen is currently working on music projects. Video: Carmen Amara - "Rio" from Armaan Music
