Clara Whitmore: Her story, her voice

Origins and success

Clara Whitmore was born in Charleston (United States) on November 16, 1990. Music has always played a central role in her life: her mother, a piano teacher, started her musical education at the age of six, while her father - a great vinyl enthusiast - introduced her to the classics of jazz, blues, and swing. At 14, she began singing in school choirs, discovering a passion for jazz. While admiring their styles, she developed a unique voice of her own: warm, enveloping, and laced with melancholic undertones. After graduation, she moved to New York to perfect her studies at the prestigious Aurelia School of Performing Jazz Art, where she specialized in jazz vocals and composition. Clara is celebrated for her intimate performances, often held in small clubs with soft lighting and minimalist arrangements. Discreet and far from the media spotlight, Clara divides her time between New York and a house nestled in the Tuscan countryside, which serves as both a sanctuary and a source of inspiration for her music. One of her passions is analog photography, and she often takes the photographs for her own album covers.
