About Me
Hello, Therese Carroll and Sarah Ward, are a vocals and acoustic guitar duo from Leeds, UK.
They play a wide range of songs - soul/blues/rock and roll and more, and theres some occasional scatting and trumpet imitating too from the multitalented Therese!
They play the occasional original, as well as covers from many different eras and artists, such as by artists such as Stevie Wonder, Etta James, Jerry Lee Lewis, Gershwin, Sublime and Michelle Shocked.
Sarah and Therese gig regularly. They can usually be found supporting 30 year old blues/jug band Hot Pot Belly Band.
The track on the myspace with a band features Daniel Prothero on bass, and Martin Delaney on drums.
If anyone would like a copy of our CD, with the 4 tracks above, and a few more on, let us know and we'll send you one for free.
Cheers.
REVIEW FROM 'THE PRIMROSE GUIDE'. Issue 1 - October/November 2005.
"The Primrose have never failed to attract the hottest new talent from all over the country, Leeds certainly has much to offer when it comes to acoustic talent. Michelle Shay blew us away all those years ago, now it is time for Sarah and Therese to do the same. Having played together for a year, they have decided to let us taste some of their soulful classics, as given to us by legends such as Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin and Joss Stone. Smooth guitar (Sarah) and super powerful vocal talent (Therese) gives this duo a magical edge. Weve played together for a year now, we dont mind if we make it big, it would be nice, but if not then well just keep on playing guitar and singing. That sounds fine to me girls. "
