Hi! I’m Carleen. Call me ‘Car’ if you want. I love to sing. I know~ that’s *surprising* to see on a musician’s profile. Haha (insert sarcasm here) In all seriousness, though, allow me to be more specific. Singing is when I feel most like myself. It’s when I feel the most present. It’s when I feel safe. There’s nothing else out there that I could excel at while still finding fulfillment. I’ve lived a very colorful life so far and I’d really like to share that with others. In the past, my music has reflected more of the darker side of that color wheel. I thought that I was being more true to my craft by making an effort to unload all of the heavy. As you can likely guess, that hasn’t worked too well. It has taken me away from my heart...which actually holds a lot of joy along with its scars. Many of these scars come from childhood wounds. I’ve quite literally had 10 parents and a bazillion siblings. Simply put, this has led to my needs not being met. Then that led to me feeling like maybe I’m “too needy” and take up “too much space.” However, I now see that those are blatant lies. I wanna believe that there is plenty of space on the tree branches for every type of songbird. I’m committed to liberating said bird so that it can take flight in the way it’s made to. I’m committed to understanding first self and others as a result. I’m looking forward to sharing more with you. I’m so excited that you are here! I have the deepest gratitude for your support. xo
