About Me

"This music is ..earth-sexy, folkternative.. at its best. Great songs, well recorded, well performed .. and not what you usually hear on the radio, but just as catchy and accessible. This is new and cool and will be the next music everyone is listening to, as it captures both the imagination and the heart, while you can respect the honest emotional expression and the craft. All the songs are interesting moments unto themselves, reflecting a prismatic and charismatic performer with many unique and important things to say." - Danica Nolan, Indiemark
"Definite ear candy... " - Tim MacAleese, Canadian Rawk Network
Caroline's music is eclectic, lush, creative and passionate and is similar in feel to The Smiths, Kate Bush, Beast, Pooka, Stevie Nicks, Folk Implosion, and Bat for Lashes if you put them all together, added a touch of gothic harmonies ala Cocteau Twins and shook until well-blended
