Carmen McLean

Having spent many an evening crafting songs in the solitude of her bedroom, songwriting comes very naturally to 25 year-old folk-pop songstress Carmen McLean.

Influenced by artists such as Leith Ross and Madi Diaz, Carmen has a distinctly refreshing homestyle sound, with intricate vocals and stripped back arrangements. A classically-trained violinist, Carmen records and arranges her own violin parts at home in the creative cocoon of her bedroom. With the help of a backing band, Carmen’s music is layered with modest yet uplifting harmonies, and heart-tugging vulnerability.
