Introducing Dora Martin


Coalition - https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/coalition-ep/id711740060

Dora Martin are a recently formed double act consisting of Jermaine Riley and Cherri Voncelle, both of whom are established musical acts in their own right.

Jermaine Riley is a British singer/songwriter and already has numerous albums to his name. 

As a big fan of Smallville (the TV Show), I particularly like his song of the same name.

Cherri Voncelle is a unstoppable force when it comes to her vocal abilities, with not only The Show but also in her reworking of the Lenny Kravitz classic Fly Away.

Fly Away - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFc0OqkR51U

Dora Martin have recently released their debut EP Coalition.

Coalition launches with Love Insaniac with great vocals from the duo and I particularly loved the piano segments. Skyline is a catchy tune but the instrumentals slightly overshadows the vocals.

Soldier has a beautiful intro and Cherriv's vocals are beautiful as ever, Jermaine and Cherriv are a first class musical double act. Black History features great lyrics which are effortlessly performed by Jermaine and Cherriv.

Blind Man Treasure is a gem of a tune, Jermaine's soulful vocals work best here and the instrumental arrangement is spot on. Having it as the last track was a great choice and it's without a doubt the best song on the EP.

The super talented Charlene Soraia wows us with another beautiful melody


Without Your Love - https://soundcloud.com/charlenesoraia/charlene-soraia-without-your/


https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/without-your-love-ep/id730436328


Not only does Charlene have a unique and beautiful voice but her mastery of the guitar is almost second to none and her latest EP does a five star job of demonstrating that.

In Without Your Love her voice radiates from the get go and an instrumental arrangement that's easy on the ears plus with first class lyrics Charlene once again continues to shine like a musical beacon in the fog of mainstream music.


I also recommend you check out her live album recorded at the iTunes Live - London Sessions a few years ago.

Own It - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=widZbNZqYFQ

Jess's debut single Own It effortlessly shows us what this rising star is capable of and with its motivational lyrics, this tune is outstanding. This is definitely her moment and with her forthcoming EP, Jess will definitely own it

Now follows a insight into how Jess started on her musical journey, from an early age where music from greats such as Nina Simone and The Doors got regular airplay in the King Household plus her own musical influences include Nelly Furtado, Coldplay and Jazz great Nancy Wilson.

At the age of 5 Jess started studying the piano, followed by the clarinet, trumpet and baritone horn; in addition she harmonized a capella style with one of her sisters to pop songs on the radio, this was the foundation of Jess becoming a musical artist.

With her unique vocal talents, Jess can transcend  musical genres and although she prefers the pop genre she isn't afraid to experiment. She has already performed internationally in Tokyo, Hong Kong, London , Paris and San Francisco plus she composed the music for an award winning indie film and was applauded by musical superstar Stevie Wonder.
