Carolina Moon

From New Zealand

Carolina Moon's 'Mother Tongue' is a journey that begins in the heartland of medieval Spain and flows through rivers of Indian time - exotic grooves and the sensual, haunting melodies of the Spanish Judeo Sephardic lands. The melodies echo with a vibrant spirit of tradition and are sung in a range of languages both ancient and modern, flavoured with exotic meters and grooves and contemporary soundscapes. Carolina Moon, aka Caroline Lynn, and her ensemble perform music infused with the sounds and textures of their personal journeys through rivers of inspired Indian time, flamenco Spain, Europe, The Americas, Australia, Aotearoa, and the folklore and legends of England. Carolina is joined by the luscious strings of Nigel Gavin on guitar, electric oud and mandolin, and soulful sounds of Roger Manins on bass clarinet and soprano sax and set to the visual backdrop of sound artist Maree Quinn.
