CHARLOTTE DIAMOND
Celebrating 25 years of success in Children’s Music

“Creative and fun-loving, and an optimist who believes that people working together can create a better world” San Jose Mercury News, CA

Charlotte Diamond lives with her family in Richmond, British Columbia. Born and raised in Vancouver, she graduated from the University of B.C. with a Bachelor of Secondary Education, majoring in Zoology and French. She took further studies at Laval University, Quebec, in French Language and taught Science, French and Music at the junior-high school level for 12 years.

Charlotte has had a life-long interest in music. She sang with local folk groups, including performing intro sets for Pete Seeger and Tom Paxton. When her own children came along, she began singing and writing songs for them and also developed a preschool music program in her community. This led to performances for her children's parent-participation preschool, which mushroomed into requests for workshops, school concerts and family shows around Vancouver and throughout British Columbia.

Charlotte formed her Hug Bug Band and proceeded with the independent production and release of
"10 Carrot Diamond", which won the Canadian Juno Award (1986). Her career turned professional and international overnight, and "10 Carrot Diamond" is a Certified Gold Record in Canada. A frequent headliner for the Vancouver International Children’s Festival, she is best known for favourites like, “Four Hugs a Day”, “I am a Pizza”, “Octopus” (Slippery Fish) and “Dicky Dinosaur”.

Her music, as well as being lively and singable, inspires children to care for each other and to celebrate the diversity of our cultural mosaic with songs like “Leave the World a Little Better”. Charlotte’s concerts are fun for kids but parents and grandparents will be captivated by her music, as well.
