Born into the third generation of the New Orleans legendary musical family, Charmaine Neville has nonetheless worked hard to get where she is and make her music known as her own. The work has paid off as one reviewer recently wrote, "Charmaine Neville is beginning to rival her father and uncles in terms of popularity in New Orleans."

It was here that she first started working with saxophonist Reggie Houston.
Charmaine Neville wields her bright alto voice with breezy, carefree panache over a mixed bag of styles, from blues and bebop scatting to Latin and cool R&B.
