An initial encounter with 19-year-old Rochelle Maxius reveals a confident, though reserved individual, with a pleasant personality and a truly captivating smile. From the way she speaks and her humble manner, very few would be able to guess that she is an extremely talented young lady.
She possesses a truly amazing voice and this is no exaggeration. Simply ask anyone who has been fortunate enough to have heard her sing. Blessed with such a rich melodious voice, excellent control and remarkable clarity, it is no surprise that she leaves an audience awe-struck when she sings. This was the case when The Scene saw her perform at a recent event. As soon as she sounded her first note, the audience was stunned into immediate silence, and remained so until the end of her performance, which was acknowledged with resounding applause. Apparently, this is usual.
