Carol Lee Sampson - singer/songwriter
Originating from Jersey in the Channel Islands, Carol has been living in Malvern since 1995,
is married to Gareth, (who is a great bass player), with whom she has a son Jack, who is 6.

She started penning songs at the age of 9… and they just keep on coming!

"I love writing songs that people can relate to - life's journey takes us through
many ups and downs, and there is always a song to help us through!
My current CD "Back to Life" is a bit like a journal of the last ten years of my life."


Carol has recorded several albums to date, and has many other songs published by
Kingsway Music - a Christian publishing company which is based both here and in the USA.
She is currently working on a new CD which will be completed in the next few months.

Claire is a local singer/songwriter performing her own songs along with a pretty
eclectic mix of covers from trad folk to Nick Drake, Kelly Clarkson and Bauhaus !!!!

Emma White - singer/songwriter
Emma is 20 and have been singing locally for several years. She started performing in
pubs when she was 13 with her dad - Paul White and that led onto several solo spots
and supporting roles in many local bands. She sang in an acoustic duo, A&E, which led
me to perform in several destinations round the UK, France and Italy, and locally including
Malvern West Fest, Malvern Folk festival and the Upton Jazz festival. She is currently
performing as a solo artist accompanying herself on piano. She performs a range of styles
in her set including pop, jazz, blues and my own material. Her main musical influences are
Nina Simone, Sarah McLachlan and Jason Mraz.
