About Carol Douglas

Many thanks for visiting my page.

Please try to have an open mind if you browse my songs because they vary widely in mood, recording quality, and genre......rock, pop, folk, jazz, blues, country, musical theatre, classical, good cause songs, ones for children, comedy, and deeper ones about tough issues.

GENERAL

I'm a songwriter only, a member of BASCA, a long term member of the MCPS/PRS, with songs published in the past. Around 30 listed at my main site Soundclick were written (words and music) before I started to collaborate (writing only the lyrics) and they were sung by Sarah White and Sarah Doggett.

INSPIRATION

This comes from personal experiences, picking up on things said in conversation, being given a challenge, or simply through being very moved or amused by something..

TOP FRIENDS INDEED-MOSTLY CO-WRITERS

The first 19 people on my friends list here have co-written with me. ...all very different as musicians, but because my lyrics are so diverse anyway, this works well and I value each one a great deal, especially as some are way out of my league. ..

Lijah, Maria Daines and RedEyeC have kindly put their vocals down for me, and Double Vision performed some of my Country tracks extensively at Tamworth Country Music Festival, Australia.

AIRPLAY

Tracks have been broadcast on many regional BBC Radio stations as well as by TOM ROBINSON on BBC Radio 6, on Radio Mytilini in Greece, the legendary Radio Caroline, and stations in Germany

RETAIL

They're also being played daily now in 450 stores of a nationwide retail outlet and in 43 motorway services across the UK (this is something which really makes me smile)

BACKGROUND

My past jobs have been as varied as my music is. Before I had children I was a qualified ballet teacher with my own school for about 6 years while working as receptionist for an Architect. Other jobs have included Voluntary Probation Officer with the Police, North West Recruitment Co-Ordinator for an NVQ Training company, and production worker in a mentholated sweets factory!

AIMS

I'm always looking for more exposure of my songs in the hope that I can attract the interest of a good publisher, that eventually one will be picked up and released by a mainstream artist, or used in a short film/documentary. If you're interested in any of my material please contact me.

Nad Sylvan	Sep 1 2009 12:28 AM Thank you dear Carol, Yes time flies and it will soon be 5 years ago I worked with your music. Actually the first time in many years I took on somebody elses song, and I liked doing that. I enjoy playing and singing with Roine Stolt and his songs as well, as my days with Bonamici is now over. It will be great fun to come to the US again. My dad, brother and two cousins will attend the LA gig, and that will be great fun! With love and affection, Nad Ps. Yes, I agree - Yellow sky stands the test of time, doesn't it? I am still proud of that song! So thank you for that.
