Carol performs and records with diverse accompanists, ensembles and big bands at clubs, concerts, festivals, corporate functions, private parties and studios. Her distinctive, accessible style of vocal interpretation combines impeccable technique with sophisticated artistry and inventiveness. Nominated for the Boston Music Awards as Outstanding Jazz Vocalist, Carol names Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Sarah Vaughan and Carmen McRae as some of her favorite singers and major musical influences. Her performances showcase jazz, musical theatre and film composers (such as Ellington, Arlen, Porter, Gershwin, Rodgers and Kern) as well as her own arrangements, compositions and lyrics. She offers an exciting variety of jazz and cabaret styles (swing, blues, bebop, ballads, torch, Latin, humor/novelty), moods, tempos and dynamics (from spirited, uptempo scat singing to tender, lush ballads). Her expressive range includes the sensitivity to perform in an intimate piano/vocal duo setting as well as the energy and strength to complement a full orchestra.
