Her Audience
Music Carolyn calles her music jazzy-soulful songs and stories for lovers lost and found. Her fans are called night dreamers, named after the title cut from the iconic Wayne Shorter album. Kurt Elling, Music Carolyn’s favorite vocalist, created compelling lyrics for the epic melody Shorter composed. “The trip the melody and lyrics take are like a meandering dream through the universe and I want my songs to help my audience time travel that way,” says Carolyn. On the purpose of her music she says, “I create music from my own personal sanctuary and hope that my songs connect people’s emotions to their spirits and create ascension beyond what the ears can hear. Like dreams, I want my music to make you think and move above reality to a higher plane, where comfort and love reigns, no matter what the circumstance.”
