New album from Mary Caroline

FOLK artist Mary Caroline has released her debut studio album Life On Earth and a video for the title track.

Mary got in touch with RealSoundsOK to tell us about her life, which heavily influences her sound.

She said: "The closest place I can call home is a remote trapper's cabin, 600km from the community of Yellowknife, just below the Arctic circle. In the north I work on a Animal Planet/Discovery show called Ice Lake Rebels. It follows the trials and tribulations of a group of Yellowknife house boaters living off grid, frozen in place on Yellowknife Bay. 

"The job gives me the opportunity to also live "off the grid", focusing on my songwriting. Recharging the batteries between tours and recordings."

Mary has returned from the wild recently to play a few gigs and will also play the Folk Alliance International in Kansas City on February 20th.
