caroline by Tom Whitson
caroline have three London gigs coming up during the next few months.
London-based collective caroline will put their self-titled debut album out on February 25th, 2022.
The eight-piece have been working in the studio with John ‘Spud’ Murphy, and are streaming the new single IWR now.
“Jasper (Llewellyn – acoustic guitar, cello, drums, vocals) was sending a lot of home-recorded nylon guitar and singing ideas, and one just stuck because it was just a really beautiful vocal melody,” guitarist and vocalist Mike O’Malley explains.
“We had an initial guitar-based idea, then we decided that on a certain chord this wall of violins should come in.”
Those London gigs are booked at Earth on November 16th this year, the Southbank Centre’s Purcell Room on January 15th, 2022, and Rough Trade East on the day of their LP’s release.
