Camille stuided piano and saxophone for years before picking up the guitar at age 19. She never looked back after that. Guitar allowed her poetry to find a voice and soon she took the stage. Camille can play with the powerful punch of a three or four-piece band -- or play acoustic shows. The diverse musicianship of its members allows the Ian McFeron Band to shift smoothly through a variety of roots-Americana styles, ranging from acoustic folk-rock to gritty alt-country blues, from heartfelt, soulful ballads to driving, danceable backbeat groves.
