Ella, Tina, Joni, Aretha, The Band, Billy Joel, Alanis Morrisette (Jaged Little Pill), Diana Krall, Madeline Peyroux...Life, Love and all things that baffle the mind. Jazz, Soul, Blues, Folk, Rock...Just give me some GOOD music!
Sounds Like
If Diana Krall and KT Tunstall had a baby...With Amy Winehouse (after rehab) as the surrogate...
Carole Leigh is described as a sultry, soulful rock chanteuse (with more than a hint of jazz for flavor). Born and raised in New York she possesses a unique sound that is characterized in the bluesy quality of her “velvet” voice. She busts open the boundaries past her freckled face, channeling the power and spirit of divas past and present. Her musical influences range from jazz to rock to folk to broadway and back again. The beloved divas of her past...Aretha, Ella, Tina and Joni. The divas of her present Alanis Morrisette, Diana Krall and Amy Winehouse...All packed with a Joplin-esque punch.
As the former lead singer of the pop band Modesty Blaze she toured the local NY music scene playing in such impressive spots as Arlene’s Grocery, CB’s Gallery and The Bitter End.
After a brief hiatus honing her chops as a songwriter (and selling a few screenplays in La La Wood), Carole has returned to New York as a solo artist. You can catch her performing her musical creations on life, love and things that baffle the mind by checking out NEWS & GIGS...
At the mo...She is working on an album with Keith Shocklee, the infamous and most creative mad genius behind Public Enemy. If you’d like to read about her experiences recording and maybe a few other thoughts on the way of the world (and music) check out her PSEUDO- BLOG...
Here’s the “in case you were curious” stuff...Carole’s also a grad from NYU Tisch School of Arts - Drama and periodically acts when personally requested. She has done over 25 off and off-broadway shows as well as television and independent film. She can most recently be seen on Gene Simmon’s Family Jewels as “Carole”. And before you ask...YES, meeting Gene was a life altering experience.
One more thing...She has an Emmy and a Peabody Award for journalism...Random?!? Totally!
