Carolyn Arends Celebrates 20 Years with New Acoustic Project

Singer and songwriter Carolyn Arends will be celebrating 20 years since the release of her first album. On October 1st, she will be releasing an acoustic project where she has re-recorded 11 of her formerly released songs and one new song. In order to decide what songs to include for this project, she has enlisted the help of her fans who voted as to which their favorite Arends song is.
Arends writes: "Yesterday, our long-suffering engineer, co-producer and de-facto trio member Roy Salmond finished mixing the project, and it's been sent off to the mastering lab for the final touches. It's called, JUST GETTING STARTED: An acoustic reflection on 20 years in music. We hope to have it available as a free download by October 1st."
