Take Five With Carolyn Martin
By
Instrument(s): vocals, guitar.
Teachers and/or influences? Rosemary Clooney, Jo Stafford, Nancy Wilson, Sarah Vaughan.
Your sound and approach to music: My approach is that western swing is the same music as big band swing, but with fiddles and steel rather than trumpets and saxophones.
Anecdote from the road: I was once chased by a chain wielding dwarf in the Reeperbahn in Hamburg.
