Edie Carey

IC-US-CO-East

Colorado-based Edie Carey has been singing at festivals, colleges, and listening rooms  across the US, Canada and Europe since 1998, performing alongside Brandi  Carlile, Sara Bareilles, Jonatha Brooke, and Shawn Colvin. She's  co-written with and had songs cut by Chely Wright and Shawn Mullins.  She’s also been a featured artist on PRI’s Mountain Stage. Her latest offering, paper rings: 8 love stories,  is a moving collection of songs commissioned by her fans for their  loved ones. Her prior album, a duo project with Sarah Sample, won Best  Children's Album in the 2014 Independent Music Awards. Carey is  currently writing songs for a new album due out in 2021.

"...Edie Carey is known for her  unmistakable, soulful voice, her intelligent, heart-grabbing songs, but  perhaps most especially for her warm, engaging presence on – and off –  stage. As much a part of her show as the music itself, Carey’s wry and  often self-mocking humor makes audiences feel as though they have just  spent an evening with a very close friend. “Bare of self-pity and full  of down-to-earth revelation... a little country, a little  adult-contemporary, and a lot of fine music.”
