Other Top 5 singles “Perfect Sunday” and “Stronger Now” – from her 2020 full length album Stronger Now - have crossed over to massive numbers in a metric usually touted by mainstream pop stars. Currently, “Perfect Sunday” has over 7.9M streams on Spotify and “Stronger Now” has over 2.9M. The album’s other radio hits include the Top 5 hit “Femme Flight,” which featured flutist Ragan Whiteside and saxophonist Magdalena Chovancova and earned Carol a new legion of fans via extensive airplay on SiriusXM’s Watercolors.
Since establishing herself as smooth jazz mainstay in 2017, one of Carol’s unique trademarks has been writing and recording songs that both chronicle and express her own emotions and thoughtfully reflect upon the world around her.

ROBYN SPRINGER
WATCH
Robyn Springer is a professional vocalist whose richly diverse musical background includes a debut R&B solo album (Makin’ Moves, Virgin Records/ Cardiac); featured vocal performances on albums by such artists as contemporary jazz saxophonist Najee to Fugees’ alternative/rapper John Forte; and various live tours from London to Greece to New York, where she appeared with such legends as GeorgeBenson, Herbie Hancock, and Kirk Whalem. A native of New York City, Springer has recorded on such labels as Atlantic, Transparent and Verve/ Forecast. Springer, a first-alto, boasts a versatile and sultry style known to transport audiences from church pews to Delta juke joints to downtown jazz cafes. Her latest album, The Acoustic Project, is an eclectic collaboration with guitarist and songwriter Greg Cagle.
BRANDON STEVENS
Brandon Stevens is the rare vocalist with the ability to glide from classic Soul, to Funk, to modern R&B and Pop, with ease and conviction. Since the mid-2000s, his smooth, silky voice has carved its own space in the hearts of audiences from the U.S. to Europe.
Growing up in Columbia, South Carolina, Brandon became enamored with writing songs and playing piano by the time he was a teenager. While earning a degree in graphic design from Winthrop University, he realized that music was his true passion, and quickly became a campus favorite at talent shows and open mics. Following college, Brandon formed the R&B/Hip-Hop band Mellogroove with two of his undergrad classmates. In 2019, the band was honored by the City of Rock Hill, South Carolina as a Historic Musical Group.
During a ten-year stint with renowned Soul/Beach music group Chairmen of the Board, Brandon lit up the Southeastern U.S. festival and theatre circuit, and completed two critically-acclaimed UK tours. The Chairmen’s 2017 album ‘Words Left Unsaid’ features Brandon on lead vocals for ‘All I Need Is You Tonight’ and ‘Each Morning I Wake Up,’ a remake of Major Harris’ 1975 hit.
