Caroline7
Found this gem of an artist lurking around on Overplay. Based in my home region of the West Midlands in England Caroline7, plays out acoustic melodic folk tunes which are booth soothing and haunting.
Likened to Eva Cassidy (perhaps a very young highschool easysreet Cassidy), she fingerpicks lightly and carries a lot of the work with her voice, a lot like Cassidy herself, haunting in some way. What you get with the track Childhood, is exactly the kind of track which wouldn’t be out pf place in an acoustic tent at a music festival, raw and melodic yet predictable. But then again there’s something safe about predictability.
Caroline has been featured on Classic Gold Digital Radio, BURN FM, BBC Radio WM and BBC Radio Cambridgeshire. She also played at Artsfest in Birmingham, which is a massive arts and performing arts festival in the second city of England. Anyone local to Birmingham will be able to catch this jewel in the midlands music scene at a number of venues in the coming days and months, including a local shopping centre in Wolverhampton, bostin! Be sure to check the gigs page if you happen to in this part of the world.
