 Conchita Campos is California's songwriting genius. Grabbing soul, acoustic and R&B flavors, Campos crafts a sound that is nothing short of unique and strikes listeners with its powers of expression and its enrapturing melodies.

Happy Place
Campos finds her zen in the midst of music. It is the source and power of her joy in life. For that reason, passion blazes across the landscape of her compositions. “Making music is my happy place. It's the one place where I can feel both disconnected and in tune with the world.” Her words point directly to the heart of music's power. It is both an escape and a network by which everybody is connected. It is intimate and universal. And Campos is a master at wielding this power of music.

Sincerity
Sincerity is vital for greatness. This is especially true in the realm of music. If an artist is to truly connect with listeners, the music must resonate. To resonate, it must speak what the listener's heart recognizes as emotional truths. For that, an artist must be brave and honest. Such is Campos. “If you write music that is sincere and honest you can never go wrong, no matter what anyone tells you.”

Everyday Life
For someone of the passionate disposition of Campos, musical inspiration can come from anywhere. “The everyday details of life inspire me - spurts of happiness, anger, frustration, insanity.” Storytelling in music is also an inspirational key for Campos. “ I am influenced by artists who tell stories.”

Near Future
Campos is hard at work on a new EP at the moment. But following that, she'll be hitting the venues to share her rich sound with all comers. “I'm working on an EP right now but as soon as it's done, I'll be hitting the local scene with my boys (the band), so keep an eye out.” She is currently working with A&R Select, the leading independent A&R firm in Hollywood, CA.

Review
“Campos is rare in the quality of her songwriting richness.” - A&R Select
