Chloe Temtchine is an American singer-songwriter.[1]

Early life

Temtchine studied at

Baptist church in Harlem, where she was exposed to gospel music.[4]

Career

Her debut album, Between Day & Dream, was released in 2009. Temtchine won the 2011 Avon National and International Songwriting Competition with her song "Step Up," which was used in an Avon television commercial.[5] She performed on Late Night with David Letterman as a backup vocalist for musical guest Ne-Yo, sang in a 2012 commercial for the 100th anniversary of American Express, and was featured on NY-1 News, with "Where in The Truck is Chloe."[5]

Her 2015 album, Be Brave, was produced by

intensive care. Amy Carlberg of Bust magazine wrote that the track was "twangy and energetic, and springboards off the bluegrass and banjo-laden sounds that have been ruling the pop charts".[7] Over 150,000 copies of the album were downloaded within the first 90 days of its release.[8]

Health issues

Beginning in 2008, Temtchine suffered a series of medical issues, including

congestive heart failure and difficulty breathing.[5][8] She was diagnosed with a rare disorder, pulmonary venoocclusive disease (PVOD), in addition to severe pulmonary hypertension.[4]

In August 2020, Temtchine suffered a cardiac arrest, was in a coma, and spent 21 days on life support before receiving a double lung transplant. She required the continuous use of an oxygen tank that was connected to a nasal breathing tube, and in February 2021, Chloe (who sings with a paralyzed vocal cord) performed live for the first time since the transplant.[citation needed]
