Music Speaks Louder Than Words - Miriam Chemmoss

Hey there, 

Does music have the same effect on you that it has one me? Often times when words fail, music expresses what the heart feels. 

I believe in its power to change people. I also believe in its power to soothe one’s soul because music bypasses the mind and speaks to your heart. Music has the power to produce a kind of happiness that human nature can’t live without. Music is magical to me. 

I love how one can sing a very beautiful melody about a terrible life situation but in the process get some wisdom and encouragement to keep the faith. It’s the equivalent of turning lead into gold. Did I choose music or did music choose me? That I really don’t know but it has me in its warm embrace. 

 Since you last heard from me, I’ve been promoting my album “Lovebird” via interviews with local and international media. I have performed with the Tinton Band in New York City as well as other venues like the United Nations. I taught a Soukouss Dance master class and I even had time to speak at high schools and colleges about what it's like to be a global citizen and the kind of leadership required in a changing world. 

On my birthday 2 months ago, I got to swim and interact with a pod of wild dolphins in South Florida. The biggest highlight so far has been a recent invitation to attend the first ever, AFRIMMA Awards (African Music Magazine). 

I have been nominated for 'Best Female, Diaspora' among some of my favorite Artists. What an honor! I'm so happy, grateful and humbled. I would love your vote. Please click on the link below to vote for me under “Best Female Diaspora”
