‘If Nick Cave was a lady……and was a fan of jazz music, then he'd be a little bit like Caroline Ty…..exotic rhythms and big vocals, crashing in waves against a pebbly beach of contemporary lyrics and new-wave poetry’. The Mag
London born, Kent based Caroline Ty (aka Caroline Woolrich) is a songwriter and film/multimedia composer who blends classical training and bluesy vocal melodrama within a fusion of electronic and organic sounds. Writing twistingly dark compositions, with expressive, confessional lyrics. Music you can dance to, but with a dark undertone somewhere in the chord changes, as if not all is well at the party. Sometimes purring gently with chocolaty dark tales of love and sometimes swiping a cheeky paw at celebrity obsession. An observation of human nature and a commentary on the absurd world we have built ourselves, a world filled with a political zeitgeist of money grabbing, deception and broken promises. Self-penned, produced and released with a spirit of independence. Her music has been performed at the Serpentine Pavilion, The Barbican, The National Gallery and The Milton Court Theatre, London
