Outstanding singer Curtela Lewis is one to watch

Curtela Lewis stands out. A singer, she has been outstanding since she came to the general public’s attention in the Guyana Talent Search Competition. Her consistency secured her a spot in the final and she is one of the ten winners of the inaugural competition.

With her father, Curtis Lewis being one of the founding members of the longstanding group, Dynamic Force, music has always been a part of Curtela’s life. She recalled singing from as young as four years old while attending nursery school. Her performances extended to her church life also; she sang in church, sometimes in a duet with her father.

“When I am singing I get to express myself. Usually I’m a shy person but onstage, I really get to show more of myself,” she said.
