Bio
Singer Carolyn Martin has been described as “… a winning throwback to the days where emotion was measured and artful rather than loud and histrionic.” From European concert halls to intimate venues at home in Nashville, fans have come to know Carolyn as a a vocalist with a unique sense of musical style, a charismatic stage presence and a voice that exudes passion and experience – the soulful elegance that is the very essence of music. .. .. A former member of the Grammy nominated Time Jumpers, Carolyn was also named as the 2008 recipient of the Academy of Western Artists (AWA) Will Rogers Cowboy Award for Western Swing Female Vocalist of the Year. Her CD, “Swing” was nominated as the Western Swing Album of the Year by the Western Music Association and named as one of the Top 10 western swing albums of 2007. .. .. Carolyn’s latest project, “Cookin’ With Carolyn”, has songs from the swing era, including Nat King Cole’s “Straighten Up And Fly Right”, Hoagy Carmichael’s “Nearness Of You” and Johnny Mercer’s “Dream”, classic country and western songs like “Columbus Stockade Blues and “Yodel Blues” well as new material written by Carolyn and several of her friends. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .................... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .................... -
