CAROLYN HARLEY Solo artist. I love the freedom of performing as a solo artist and the energy of working in song circles with guitar, original songs and stories. THE CAROLYN HARLEY BAND. I love to create events with multi-instrumentalist Steve Goodchild. We do a wide range of styles with interesting combinations of instruments and harmony. I supply the rhythm guitar and Steve fills things out on banjo, mando, resonator and acoustic 9-string guitar pus some harmonies. GRANDMA BUSKER I have also created a sideline as a solo performer as 'Grandma Busker'. I have fallen in love with this form of street performance and have a wonderful battery Bose system and head mic. I performed all summer in 2019 on Steven Avenue Mall and at the East Village last year. I believe in working closely with venues to encourage my fans to attend my events. I am a recording artist, songwriter and entertainer. My CD, Heartbeat of the World, was nominated for Folk Recording of the Year for the YYC Music Awards for 2021. I released an EP to Canada and Europe featuring Ordinary Man in 2022. I performed March, 2023 at the Calgary Folk Club. I released my albums in Canada and Europe and received airplay in Canada on CKUA, CBC and university stations as well as airplay in Europe. I am a strong vocalist and people often say "I could listen to you sing all night". My shows are all original material with an average of 70% uptempo and 30% ballad/story songs. My music appeals to all ages from youth on up through seniors. My styles include Americana, swing, blues, folk, rock-a-billy, classic country, country rock, easy listening jazz, humour and audience participation.
