NEW ALBUM NOW AVAILABLE AT WWW.CDBABY.COM/CD/CARRIEWADE For more information, please contact her at: http://www.myspace.com/carriewade http://www.facebook.com//carriewademusic With a picturesque sound that is distinctly American yet colored by the exotic, Carrie Wade is a recording artist who delivers her personal evocations with powerful subtlety and a sublime sense of emotion. Filmic textures harken back to the classic soundtracks of the 1960s, from which melancholy and simplicity of the time blend into the modern world of today where Wade’s songs move the audience in the sometimes violent, sometimes peaceful ebb and flow of living.Wade is set to release her debut record, The Old Ways, on November 14, for which co-producers Peter Kearns of New Zealand and Marty Rifkin of Los Angeles were brought aboard to enhance and reflect Wade’s diverse palette of influences.Inventive as it is viable, Wade’s music has attracted listeners hungry for songs where expectations are heightened rather than lowered, making “It’s Just Blood,” “Needles In The Waves,” “Cuddling With Doom,” and the title track popular staples of terrestrial and internet radio stations alike. At iacmusic.com, five of her songs have entered the Top 10, with three reaching Number 1. Recently, a new song by Wade, “Broken Soldier,” has the distinction of not only enjoying its ninth week at Number 1 on IAC’s Folk/Acoustic Rock/Americana chart, but also has been lodged at Number 39 on Neil Young’s "Living With War Today" page at www.neilyoung.com. Other recognitions include Los Angeles Music Awards’ Adult Alternative Female Singer-Songwriter of the Year for her song, “It’s Just Blood.” As the second song on The Old Ways, “It’s Just Blood” also has been featured in the Top 500 entries of Billboard’s World Songwriting Contest. “Wade evokes complex emotions and abstractions with a sensual intensity rarely heard from a recording artist of today. The songs on her debut are sublime, emotive, and delivered with beautiful simplicity. Subtle and powerful, The Old Ways is one of the most inventive new records to be released by a singer-songwriter of the modern era.” Greg Debonne, Music Supervisor – Television“Carrie Wade is her own kind of musician, and definitely one who’s willing to tackle more than one genre. Her debut release The Old Ways is at once hauntingly atmospheric and sweetly melodic. Vocally, she’s reminiscent of Martha Davis gone acoustic.” Bryan Kelly, Owner – Groove House Records“Carrie Wade is an artist who has the gift of writing memorable hooks with lyrics that grab you and don’t let go. She’s had several hit songs on the KIAC Big 50, showing that her songs have reached a very high standard within the Indie world.”Dave Walton and Scott Stambaugh, Founders, Independent Artist’s Company - iacmusic.com

Broken Soldier A woman's son goes off to war.
Needles in the Waves Many years ago when I was living in Boston, thousands of used needles washed up on shore of a town just outside Boston... The needles had come from a medical facility. It hadn't been long since public awareness of HIV and AIDS and this crisis was, as you might guess, extremely disconcerting.
It's Just Blood It's hard to be close sometimes
The Old Ways Do you ever return to a painful, unwanted pattern of behavior?
Cuddling With Doom An adult lullabye
