Chantal Condor (released 1986)

Chantal Condor (later known simply as Chantal) was a Canadian dance and pop singer from Quebec in the 1980s.

Her first success was as part of Voggue, a disco duo she formed with Angela Songui. In 1981 they had their most successful single, "Dancin' the Night Away".

After Voggue, she recorded as a solo act. Initially she recorded under her full name, releasing the album Chantal Condor on the Epic Records label in 1986. Her style was sometimes described as Italo disco. Off the album came the singles "Marinero" (reverse side: "Don't You Want My Love") and "Nightmare". She received a Juno Award nomination in 1986 for Most Promising Female Vocalist of the Year.^[1]^[2]

In 1989, she dropped use of her last name, releasing Chantal, on the Columbia Records label. The hit single "A Little Lovin'" was released as a single off the album.

Chantal is also credited with some small appearances in Canadian films.

She now performs under the name Chantal Chamandy.
