Sublime
★★★★★
“ What a total treat, the anticipation for this show was amazing to feel, and the final result was no let down ! From the layers of stage set, woven together to delight the senses and hold intention, to Camillas powerful ease that took us through layers of life in the feminine and a step into the masculine… Camilla is powerful, sensitive, humour filled, visionary and tender, while being supported by stunning musicians who hold the stage with world class precision and ease. I left feeling so inspired and full, like a vessel had been placed before me, with the invitation to fill it in creative form with all that I hold dear”

“ O my gosh!! Mamasong source concert on Fri night was an experience to behold indeed. Camilla is a fiery spark that lit up the whole hall with her magnificent voice, beauty, movement and pure spirit. It brought myself and my husband Tony such joy. The band were the best of musicians who complimented the music, they were all one up there on the stage. I was moved to tears and laughter . I wanted to dance and did in my seat!! As we left the hall after the concert we both felt we could see that whole show again right away!! Thank you Camilla and fabulous band of mystros. Bought the album too and love it. x”

Mamasongue - Blew me away
★★★★★
“ One of the most captivating shows I've seen in a very long time, from the very minute Camilla comes on stage she draws you in. There's so much depth to this show, while I was glued to it, I still feel I didn't absorb it all, I'd go and see it again tomorrow if I could. I'll be telling all my friends and family to miss this show is a tragedy.”

Authentic magic

“ Mamasongue is a journey through the heart of Woman. Camilla weaves a story, her story, but a story that I recognised as my own also.. Her authentic magic , pure Duende spirit shines from the moment she steps onstage. The performance was rich and seamless. Supported by incredible skilled musicians, Camilla's voice soared, moving and stirring.. The beautiful synergy between the performers was a joy to hear and see. Thank you for this most wonderful offering into the world.”

“ From the moment Camilla arrives on the stage, the hairs on the skin stand up and there's that rare feeling that your witnessing something that goes beyond an ordinary show. This is a powerful performance, taking an emotional journey through the aspects of motherhood, using music and songs from around the world as its vehicle, driven by the the top-class Mamasongue musicians and lit by colour, shadow and light. This is something to behold, catch it soon before they take this wonderful musical and theatrical experience around the world!”

A powerful and captivating journey.
★★★★★
“ I am delighted to have witnessed the birth of Cammilla Grieshels 'Mamasongue' which captivated an entranced sold out audience at Skibbereen Town Hall. Backed by an exceptional live band Camilla presents her breadth of musical innovation in a journey through music, forging a unique blend of Salsa and Rumba, primal African rhythms, Soulful Blues and effecting ballads, all woven together with Camilla's singularly exceptional voice and powerful performance. 'Mamasongue' is a remarkable, inspiring and uplifting show.”
