Carolyn Parrott

Carolyn draws upon years of performing and teaching folk music, calling dances, and telling stories to present unique participation-oriented programs for all ages. Her lively performances feature stories with songs or chants that employ her vast array of familiar and exotic instruments, while residencies can be "mixed and matched" to meet the school's or community's needs. Carolyn has advanced degrees in music and comparative literature and is on the faculty of the Concord Community Music School where she directs Songweavers, a 200+ women's a cappella chorus, and teaches five-string banjo and folk fiddle. She has a brochure available upon request.
