"It would only seem fitting that the granddaughter of the man who invented the 8 Track Cassette Player would have music in her genes" Editor - Reno Gazzette Journal
"Lear is an artist and producer with an edgy, intricate vision." - Music connection Magazine
"Her voice and on camera presence are as dramatic and expressive as her music. With a rich mix of world/electronica/trip-hop'ish/dance and a flair for counterpoint Celeste Lear is a virtual smith of the arts who knows how to hammer out audio and visual delight." Frank Gaultier - Independent Music Artists - "A Cherry pickers Journal"
"On Celeste's gripping and tantalizing debut album The Echo Inside she complements her laid-back downtempo electronica with dynamic vocals that ring with harmonic clarity. The beats are exploratory and dont rely on the time tested normally dull breaks that so many artists turn towards and funkiness is hidden behind several soundscape layers that finds Celeste whispering of tales that are fantastical yet somehow not too far from reality. Beautiful and engaging from the get-go. - Editor, Smother Magazine

With an exciting and productive 10 year ride as a hard working professional electronic music producer, record label owner, DJ and vocalist/multi-instrumentalist under her belt and a definite knack for batting out track after track of sophisticated and cutting edge electronic music and remixes, Celeste Lear is a truly tenacious and visionary artist of the digital age with an unquenchable thirst to create inspiring and groundbreaking new music to inspire her listeners. With a penchant for writing music that combines elements of pop, rock and jazz with the newer genres of trip hop, downtempo, dance and drum & bass, this modern day singer songwriter creatively fuses together unique melodies with bouncy drum beats, luscious sonic layering and adds her personally reflective and poetic lyrics in music that has been likened to: Moby, Portishead, Massive Attack, Poe, Zero 7, Morcheeba, Fiona Apple and Nelly Furtado.

Of the same jet set clan as her high flying grandfather, Lear Jet inventor William P. Lear (who was also invented the 8-track cassette of the 60's!) Celeste continues on the family's tradition of hard work, creative vision and just a bit of flashy show off just for good measure. "It would only seem fitting that the granddaughter of the inventor of the 8-Track cassette would have music in her genes." (Editor, Reno Gazette Journal). Hailing from California's underground music scene with a set of career highlights that truly depicts today's modern female in the music industry such as: The opening of her own independent label "Boutique Electronique Records" in 2006, self producing, releasing and marketing 2 solo Albums ("The Echo Inside" and "Looking Up From Underwater") and 2 compilation CDs (Digital Bliss Volumes 1 and 2 - featuring strictly female talent from the electronic music world), extensive work as a professional DJ and remix artist, song placement on 10 different compilation CDs, television, Independent films and commercials, obtaining a degree in sound engineering and music business, working as a music supervisor in Los Angeles and running and operating her own mobile event sound and DJing business. All this plus she is deaf in her right ear from a car accident she endured when she was 16. not bad for a petite, classy, sassy "one ear" sound engineer!
Celeste has most recently collaborated with producer Carmen Rizzo on a remix of her drum & bass track "Catch the Sun", has released 4 albums on her label Boutique Electroique Records that are now available at iTunes, Cd baby and most digital retailers. She is currently busy working as a professional DJ, remix artist and frequently performs with her 3 piece "Live" electronica band in California. Stay tuned for more sonic adventures with Miss Lear!
