Catching Up With Tenelle

By Melina Paris, Music Columnist

The power to draw crowds hasn’t changed for Carson born, rhythm & blues, soul and reggae singer, Tenelle. Her devoted fans fill venues when she performs with her island flavor grooves and enchanting smile. This was the case again at Saint Rocke in Hermosa Beach, August 11, when Tenelle performed with Vibrant Heights to a packed house.
We sat down briefly after the show and she filled me in on some exciting highlights for her.

Most importantly, she will have a new album coming out in late September, which is still not titled.  Her latest song is  All I Want Is You. It’s in the final stages and will be completed in September. She collaborated with Figi and Sammi J. and it will be her first full length album.

Tenelle said all her musical support up to now has been from her singles, doing backup vocals for the band Common Kings and performing her own shows. The last time we talked in 2014, she was also a personal trainer. She still does that to help pay the bills but that’s clear with her radiant appearance.

Tenelle has some new sights now, within the fashion world. She has her own brand and clothing line called, Ten Elle Gear. She was sporting a sexy black top from her line that evening.

With her talent for manifesting beauty, with music and her presence, her clothing line should follow accordingly.
