Open ocean, wind-tousled hair, and the scent of the sea! You'll feel it all in my new song, "The Dolphins Of Kaikoura (Instrumental Version)"! 🐬💜 Hope you enjoy it - link in comments. P.S. Why Kaikōura, New Zealand? Because, when I asked the best places to see dolphins, everyone said Kaikōura! Beautiful place!

A really sentimental gushy video about my "Rescue Story" song written in 2010 about the miners trapped underground for over 60 days at the Copiapo Mining Accident. Not for the faint-hearted!

I launched my website a couple of years ago, but I really didn't have a lot on it until very recently. Tonight a friend helped me accomplish getting my first two videos uploaded to YouTube. I hope Y'all will check out my "Carolyn Cates" dot com! :D

Feeling cooped up? Maybe it's time to "all go out and paint the town again!" Honesty, I'm staying home with my soda and just enjoying this new song written by William 'Juggles' Davenport and myself, produced by Waxx Floetiq. Hope Y'all enjoy this demo version of it too!

My new smoke (and carbon monoxide) alarm installed Saturday by two American Red Cross volunteers - a total of 4 smoke alarms were installed. I really appreciated this, as I'm not tall enough to reach that high, and I'm not a good ladder climber! :) Reach out to the American Red Cross during their spring push to see if they can come out and install smoke alarms for you! (The smoke alarms were free!) Be fire safe! :)

I'm hoping Y'all had a great Thanksgiving and if you're not from the USA, I hope you still had a nice day of gratitude.

"RESCUE STORY (Instrumental Version)" - one of my first attempts at production in 2010, was lost, and is now found/rescued (woohoo!) and is on SoundCloud. It's a very short instrumental thing, definitely not near perfect, but I was so happy to find my long lost track, I had to send it out right away. Overlook me. Haha. Hope Y'all enjoy it. 😃
