As an accomplished composer\, esteemed saxophonist\, vocalist\, and unique interpreter of the jazz tradition\, she is quickly becoming one of the leading standard bearers of the art form. Her distinct musical approach to classic and original repertoire\, which highlights her craft as a powerhouse singer and instrumentalist\, is a captivating blend of tradition and innovation. She makes a considerable and dynamic contribution to the legacy of jazz while paying tribute to its heroes through her music. \nThe New York City native has amassed several distinctive honors for her musicianship: NAACP Image Award Nominee for Outstanding Jazz Album\, recipient of the SOUTH Arts Creative Jazz Road Artistic Residency\, Downbeat Magazine’s Critics Poll Nominee for Rising Star Tenor Saxophonist and Vocalist and Rising New Artist (2023\, 2022\, 2021 & 2020)\, two-time winner of the ASCAP Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composers Award\, a recipient of the Fulbright Scholars Cultural Ambassador Grant and Chamber Music of America Performance Plus Grant (Sponsored by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation) among others. Thurman also has five full-length recordings as a leader to her credit. Her most recent project\, “Confluence: Vol 1\,” is a collaboration with master drummer Darrell Green and his quartet. \nThurman made history\, becoming the first woman in 30 years to tour\, record\, and perform full-time internationally with the world-renowned Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra as a saxophonist/woodwind doubler (2018-2020 season). A respected bandleader\, she has headlined numerous notable concert venues and jazz festivals worldwide\, including the Kennedy Center\, The Library of Congress\, and the Rose Theater. Her international recognition is a testament to the universal appeal of her music and the profound impact she has made on the global jazz community. \nThurman was chosen by the U.S. State Department under the Fulbright Scholarship grant to tour and perform in Paraguay and Nicaragua as a bandleader. She was recently selected by American Music Abroad and the U.S. State Department to tour and perform in Africa as a U.S. Cultural Ambassador in Cameroon\, Mozambique\, Nigeria\, Senegal\, and Mauritania. In May 2020\, Camille founded “The Haven Hang: Young Lioness Musician Q&A/ Virtual Mentorship Series.” The Haven Hang serves as a virtual and in-person mentorship series for young women musicians\, with an initiative to mentor\, aid\, and support young women pursuing music careers in the performing arts. Currently\, she is an Assistant Professor of Jazz Performance at McGill University.
