My Story
Nashville based singer/songwriter with a new album out Nov 10, 2018.
Tammy Rochelle is an accomplished Nashville-based singer/songwriter and recording artist. Originally from the sunny coast of North Carolina, Rochelle has called Nashville, Tennessee her home for over 20 years. Serving up authentic, straight from the heart soulful folk-rock, Rochelle has independently released six solo albums. She has logged eighteen international tours through Europe and has played throughout the USA, Nicaragua, Canada, Australia and Africa. After playing at the World’s Fair/Expo 2000 in Hannover for 5 months, Tammy played at the 2000 World’s Fair Main Stage and performed for the Guinness World Book of Records Television Show.
She also makes music with her husband, Joseph Bamber, in their Americana-infused duo Chasing Summer. With the depth and maturity of Sheryl Crow, the warmth and appeal of Colbie Callait, the soulful, pop edge of Sara Bareilles and a touch of ethereal, sultry blues, Rochelle captivates any audience with her playful melodies and thoughtful lyrics.
Rochelle is always open to diverse, collaborative projects. You’ll hear Rochelle’s mystical vocals on platinum selling hip hop artist Raptile’s song “Mind Elevation.” Her voice, melody, and lyrics also grace several jazz originals with Polish jazz academy musicians in the band “Echo”.
"Lost in Your Arms", Rochelle's 6th solo album and latest release, is a diverse mix of folk, soul, reggae with strong gospel harmonies reminiscent of Dolly Parton in the 70's. Key performances by all-star musicians include keyboards and BGV's from Mike Hicks (Rascal Flatts, Keb Mo), background vocal arrangements by Jason Eskridge (Zac Brown, Jonny Lang), guitar and violin by Kyle Aaron (Michael W Smith), Adrian Taylor on bass and several other guest appearances by friends close to Rochelle. Emotional highlights include "It's Gonna Rain", a downtempo spiritual pleading for healing from loss of loved ones, "Naive" about walking out of trauma and difficult experiences, and the title track "Lost in Your Arms" about learning to be vulnerable in love.
