artist Carolyn Neapole

Carolyn Neapole is an exciting, wise performer and a songwriter with a poet’s love of words and a painter’s eye for detail. For years a fixture on the Victoria and Vancouver music scene, Carolyn’s debut CD, The Letting Go, demonstrates her mastery of the recording studio and her leadership of a strong, supportive band. Carolyn Neapole is a mature talent with a bright future.

Carolyn's first release The Letting Go (1998) is rich with revelatory, poetic images and a haunting, supple sound. Released in partnership with Victoria's Theatre SKAM, Carolyn's 2002 solo effort He Said, She Sang displayed a mature, acoustic sound.  The HSSS tracks weave a tale of loneliness, heartbreak and redemption through human connection.  

Already a hugely popular, headlining live act in Victoria and Vancouver, Carolyn Neapole’s eponymous third CD Carolyn Neapole (2009) has expanded her fan base with regular airplay on Canadian radio. Over the course of her career Carolyn's been a favorite with programmers at college radio, CBC and FM rock stations (Victoria’s100.3 the Q! featured three of Neapole’s tracks on their compilation Rocktoria 9). Comparisons with Mae Moore, Sarah McLachlan, Sue Medley, and other Canadian pop divas only hint at Neapole’s musical gifts.

Here’s a brave, smart, exciting performer with a singular vision and a strikingly original sound.
