About Camille Claudel

There is more than one artist under the name of Camille Claudel: 1. a Brazilian experimental rock band formed in 1990, 2. a musical with a book and lyrics by Nan Kington. 1) Camille Claudel is a experimental rock based in Volta Redonda - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In 2012, after several disrupted changes throughout its original formation, bringing echoes from the 90’s, the guitarist/singer Fred Griman and bassist Luiza Griman got together with the guitarist Rafael Inácio, who aggregated in their wish to experiment Brazilian music influences with shoegaze. The name of the band was inspired by the renowned french sculptress and plastic artist, known for her intense creations and dramatic yet tragic lifetime, influence and reference to compositions who aspire to express these same feelings and atmospheres. The band’s first record was a homonym album released in 2017, produced in a homemade DIY style and achieved good acceptance among Brazilian and Latin American shoegaze fans. Camille Claudel did many concerts with other illustrious groups such as Lupe de Lupe, Gordura Trans, Ventre and Farmacopéia, and was featured in compilations released by departed “The Blog That Celebrates Itself”. In 2018, the drummer Tulio Freitas joined the band and helped Camille Claudel to live on and grow its musical ideas. As the years pass by, the group always reinvents their sound and give to their fans new musicalities. The band’s concerts are always intense and drives the audience crazy, and are often described as “a party of bodies that throw themselves to each other in wild ecstasy”. Selected
