Eclectic artist of the Renaissance, Ch’Lu, entices, inspires and transforms with her Zeitgeist fusion of ethereal harmonies and relatable, multi-lingual lyrics, blended with classical guitar arpeggiation, hypnotic beats and binaural field recordings. Both bewitching Ninja and entertaining Chanteuse, her signature Art-Pop sound is fuelled by her desire to expand consciousness.

Of Romanian/British parentage, Ch'Lu, (formerly Camilla Mathias), trained as a Classical Guitarist (Trinity College, London) Singer (under tutelage of John Dalby) and Actress (Central School of Speech & Drama, London & Atelier Raymond-Girard, Paris). In addition she has a solid foundation as a Vedic Mantra Meditation teacher, various Martial Arts and a growing list of languages. Ch'Lu is a polyglot polymath: creating and performing with a Campfire-meets-Kirtan-meets-Club vibe. Indeed Ch'Lu last year was streamed in several hundred different cities worldwide, has to date performed in twenty-three countries and composed and performed in thirteen languages.

BBC6 Music DJ Tom Robinson’s Fresh on the Net have already picked four tracks from Ch’Lu’s latest album The Goddess Within, for the Eclectic Picks. Funded by Arts Council of England and Help Musicians UK, the album is an Organica soundscape fusing Sanskrit vocals, classical guitar, binaural field-recordings and an electronic underscore, released June 9th, in celebration of Global Wellness Day. Under her Noroc label, Ch'Lu self-recorded and produced the Sound Medicine album in her home-studio, and celebrated it's launch with a unique night at London's Piano Smithfield.

Ch’Lu has played gigs in many contrasting venues, from London’s notorious Notting Hill Arts Club and Coronet to the east-end’s Cat & Mutton hosted by BBC6 Music DJ Chris Hawkins supporting Virginia Labuat, and The Dollhouse supporting Revolver; to Stoke Newington’s Old Church and numerous west-end private members clubs (including opening the Hurlingham Club’s Time & Leisure Magazine Food & Culture Awards and debut album launch at The Hospital). She was also a guest twice on Chris Difford (Squeeze)’s Saturday Night Song Club (on Zoom) during the pandemic.

Outside the UK some of her favourite gigs include: Dublin’s Grand Social supporting Madeleine Peyroux, Rockwood Music Hall (NYC), ONO (Bern), Abseits (Zurich) supporting Pablo Nouvelle, FNAC (Lausanne), Culture Rapide (Paris) and Mutuo Centro De Arte (Barcelona). Additionally, Ch’Lu takes virtual global audiences of hundreds on a weekly transformational journey via her “Ch’Lu Campfire' live-streams on the world's largest meditation app - Insight Timer. She has amassed a faithful following, bursting catalogue and delightful reviews in a small space of time.
Other music career highlights include recording with film composer Yann McCullough (Spectre:Bond, Grand Hotel Budapest), contributing guitar to Channel Four’s award-winning Unreported World series, and composing and performing her OFFIE nominated music in the recent London stage adaptation of Lorca’s Blood Wedding directed by George Richmond-Scott (Associate Director on hit musical Everyone’s Talking About Jamie).

Ch’Lu’s recent music video "I'm Not The Type To Sit And Swipe" about the world of dating apps has just been awarded Second Prize at the Lit Laughs International Comedy Film Festival (UK) for Best Mobile Film and is now a Finalist at the Portland Comedy Film Festival (USA) for Funniest Music Video.
