Carolyn Sills Sings the Songs of the 50s and 60s

Beginning in the fall of 2005, Brooklyn based singer Carolyn Sills has revived what country music fans miss most: the true experience of hearing the classic songbook of Patsy Cline performed live with authenticity and passion. Backed by her ace combo, The Poor Man’s Roses, Carolyn’s performance will transport you back to the late 1950’s as she captures Patsy’s classic swoon and heart wrenching emotion with every note. From up-tempo honky tonk to cry in your beer ballads, music fans of all ages can’t help but enjoy this one of a kind musical experience. The show is perfect for theaters, restaurant performances, country theme nights, outdoor festivals, resorts, casinos, honky tonks and shot gun weddings...

In addition to her all Patsy Cline tribute, Carolyn also performs a Tribute to the Songs of the 50s and 60s, featuring hits sung by Connie Francis, Dusty Springfield, Brenda Lee, Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Peggy Lee and many others. Audiences can't help but sing along to these famous tunes performed flawlessly by Ms. Sills and her band.

Carolyn Sills has made a name for herself in New York City, performing with Les Paul at The Iridium Jazz Club and selling out BB King’s Blues Club in Times Square. She just completed her third tour of Europe and continues to build a loyal international following. Her debut solo album is due out in 2009.

"... old-timey country and rock and roll band from New York City, this one good enough to make you forget you're standing in the middle of Brooklyn in 2006." - L Magazine, NYC
