Vita | Like Boom (New Single)
Vita scored a worldwide recording deal with SRP (home of international
super stars Rihanna and Shontelle)/Universal Motown Records. Vita’s
first single, “Like Boom,” will hit radio early fall, with a
full-length debut album to follow.
Vita carries with her a family background from three continents and the
Caribbean (her father is a British commercial pilot and her mother a
dentist, of Nigerian and Barbadian heritage). Inspired, like so many
young talents, by her parents’ record collection, Vita, born Vita
Chambers in Canada, was raised in Barbados on both her dad’s rock and
roll music and her mom’s R&B, and became an avid YouTube watcher,
with the result that Andrea Bocelli, Robert Plant, Freddie Mercury,
Tina Turner, Imogen Heap, Coldplay, and Pink are as much her musical
and vocal heroes as Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin, and Whitney
Houston.
She now laughs off a school choir solo at age 10 that she recalls as a
disaster, but it was after singing lead for a band at a school talent
show just last year, choosing her friends’ pop-rock favorites like
Pink’s “So What,” Leona Lewis’ “Bleeding Love” and Katy Perry’s “Hot
‘N’ Cold,” that she resolved to pursue pop music as her profession.
