Carol Kay on SoundBetter

Lennon Award Winning singer/songwriter and composer. My music has been used by major networks like HBO, Discovery, Netflix, MTV, CBC, VH1, ESPN and more. I’ve had my work used in Samuel L Jackson’s docuseries on Epix, “Enslaved”. Most recently, my viral song “Ain’t Gonna Stop” officially clocked over half a billion plays on TikTok alone.

I’m offering vocal work and production. Please see below for details:

1. Vocal Production
Please take a listen to the samples to get a feel for what my voice sounds like. If you’re looking for vocal production, I will:
- do leads
- doubles
- harmonies (3-4 parts)
- background (oohs & aahs)

2. Production
My specialty is acoustic production in the style of adult contemporary, easy listening with a heavy emphasis on vocal layers. Typical production setup for me is:
- piano
- acoustic guitar
- organic big bass drum
- bass guitar
- vocals (listed above)

Contact me through the green button above and let's get to work.

    I created an acoustic guitar version of a song of Carol's. The vibe was cool, she's nice and a talented artist. Thanks for having me playing your music!

    Carol is an exceptionally gifted vocalist and arranger who is an absolute pleasure to work with! I would be thrilled to work with her on future projects. Recommended!

    Based on previous work with Carol, I decided to have her do additional work on vocals as far as tuning, editing, and mixing go. VERY glad I spent the extra to let her use her expertise instead of trying to work on those details myself. Once again, Carol's made it possible for me to move from a piano idea to a full-blown song, and it sounds great!

    It was a pleasure working with Carol on my latest project. She was very professional and was a great communicator throughout. She came well prepared, was very polished, confident and consistent in her singing, and gave a great performance. She has a beautiful voice. It was very easy working with Carol. I plan to ask her to work on my next project.

    Carol is both efficient and instructive as a professional. She handled a codgerly person like me with dignity and a thorough handling of all the bases, from start to finish. I would certainly recommend her vocal talent for folk, Americana, and country styles of music.

    It has been a pleasure working with Carol. Communication was very fluid and the exchange of ideas was always positive. Really professional with a very creative mind and open to new ideas. I hope to work with her again in the future.

    Carol did vocals (both lead and background) on a song of mine. She sounds absolutely beautiful and made my song sound beautiful! And communication was great and professional. When I need her again, I will definitely get in touch. Thanks, Carol!
