Carolyn Sills is a singer and bass player living in Santa Cruz, CA. She writes and performs original music influenced by classic pop, country and jazz songs with guitarist Gerard Egan.
She also performs the music of Patsy Cline, Peggy Lee, Doris Day and other pop, jazz and torch singers from the 1920s through the 1950s. A lover of the music of these eras, Carolyn and her band give audiences a chance to hear these timeless songs performed live with incredible authenticity. Back in 2007, she was asked to sit in with Les Paul at the Iridium Jazz Club in New York City, and sing the songs he made famous with Mary Ford. She toured Europe in 2007 and 2008 singing and playing bass with the band Boss Tweed. She recently wrote a holiday song called George Bailey, a tribute to the man played by Jimmy Stewart in It's a Wonderful Life. Her EP of four original songs is now available on itunes, and she is plotting the completion of a full album. She also takes photographs. She is one lucky duck. |
