About
Carolyn Arends (“Seize the Day,” “New Year’s Day,” “Who You Are,” “To Cry for You”) has released 14 albums and is the author of 3 critically-acclaimed books. 15 of Arends’ songs have become top 10 radio singles on the Canadian pop and US Christian charts. Arends has earned 2 Dove Awards, 3 Juno Nominations, and was recognized as the West Coast Music Awards’ Songwriter of the Year. Arends’ newest album, RECOGNITION, is a fresh collection of 12 rootsy and melodic originals from the Canadian artist often called “a songwriter’s songwriter.” Sometimes witty, sometimes gut-wrenching – often both simultaneously – this is a record for both the head and the heart. Special guests on the project include Amy Grant, The McCrary Sisters, and the Love Sponge String Quartet.
Live, Carolyn has a knack for storytelling and a warm, engaging style that leaves audiences feeling like they’ve found a new best friend. “So good for the soul, so cathartic, and so healing. The music is like a loving embrace.” - Bruce Walsh, Christian Courier
