  • Bio

    ..........View Carmel Mikol's EPK.. ..Canadian singer/songwriter Carmel Mikol is a storyteller, crafting songs with a provocative blend of truth, fiction and wit. The title track of her new album, “In My Bones,” just took First Place in the Folk Category of the Great American Song Contest, and is a testament to the mature, literary songwriting that has her being deemed “the most promising Cape Breton born singer songwriter to hit any stage in years” (whatsgoinon.ca). Herohill.com echoes this sentiment, stating “in the very near future most East Coast music lovers will know the name Carmel Mikol.”.. ..“In My Bones” is an impressive collection of ten original songs produced by Fred Lavery at the award-winning Lakewind Sound Studio and Scott Ferguson at Ferguson Music Productions. Guided by folk/rock sensibility, the album features warm acoustics, catchy electric guitar and ethereal lap steel... ..Chosen as the Halifax Chronicle Herald’s CD Pick of the Week (March 4, 2010), In My Bones is a “well-planned and carefully crafted project, from the superior production to the beautiful packaging” (Cape Breton Post). The Halifax Chronicle Herald says her songs are “full of life and personality, while her voice is clear, expressive and direct without overselling the emotion in her soul-bearing songs” (Stephen Cooke). And London SCENE’s Dave Clarke says of the album: “Great songs and a great new voice…not a bad track in the bunch.”.. ..Carmel has shared the stage with many notable east coast talents, from revered Canadian songwriter Jimmy Rankin to 2010 ECMA Rising Star Kim Wempe. In 2009, she crossed Canada on the “Guess Who’s Driving Tour,” playing 50+ shows from Newfoundland to British Columbia. The tour hit some of Canada’s most renowned listening rooms including The Blacksheep Inn, Wakefield QC, The London Music Club, London ON, and The Carleton, Halifax NS... ..Carmel began 2010 with three feature performances at the 30A Songwriters Festival in Seaside, FL and a packed weekend of showcases at the East Coast Music Awards. This spring she embarks on an ambitious album release tour that will take her through Canada, the US and beyond... .. Keep in touch!
