Not content with being the last in line…
“Chiccy Baritone” has strategically moved her way to the front of the line where she maintains a strong presence.
Introduced to the poetry circuit in 2001 and affectionately named, “Chiccy Baritone” (Pronounced “chick-y”), by her best friend, Charlene Evans lives up to the full meaning of her stage name. Chic, well-put together (spiritually and emotionally), she is a woman who uses her deep alto voice to share her life stories in poetry form with much authority! Her work can best be described as spiritually ground, filled with real life situations and God-filled solutions. Residing in Greenville, SC, Charlene still considers her birth place, Columbia, SC, home. Awarded a degree in Electrical Engineering Technology from South Carolina State University, Charlene moved to the Upstate to begin her journey into adulthood while working in the corporate arena. After the release of her first CD in 2004 titled, “Next in Line”, Charlene received a great deal of attention.
Some of her recognition include various Keynote Speaker engagements, conferences, schools and open-mics. However, this is only the beginning to where God is extending the use of his word in the vessel of Charlene Evans…she won’t be the last but her prayer is to leave a challenging word in your heart and soul long after she has left the stage.
“Poetry is life, chiccy baritone speaks life, and what is life or chiccy without poetry?”
