    Caroline Cotto

    Imagine leaving your country in search of beauty, love and truth. That’s exactly what Caroline Cotto was brave enough to do after her 22nd birthday. She toiled away in the NYC music scene for years before she left to live in Paris and explore Europe for artistic opportunities to enrich her writing and music. She dreamed by the Seine, wrote in cafes and wandered the Louvre for hours. She describes this as her own beautiful version of the Lost Generation. Caroline then lived in London playing blues and soaking up the history of her rock heroes before moving to New Orleans. She is the winner of the 2024 INDEPENDENT BLUES AWARDS for BEST NEW ARTIST AND BEST NEW ARTIST RELEASE - BAYOU SUN. Her music has been featured on high profile radio shows such as BBC Radio 2's 'The Blues Show' with Cerys Matthews, Little Steven's Underground Garage, Genya Ravan's show, 'Goldie's Garage' and Slim Jim Phantom's 'Rockabilly Rave Up.' Her song, 'A Momma To Cry To' was on Cashbox Radio's Top 20 songs for March 2022 and has been featured by Eric Alper, Cashbox Canada, Grateful Web and Tinnitist. She has performed and been interviewed on 'Great Day Louisiana' on WWLTV by Malik Mongo. Caroline’s album, Bayou Sun was named one of the Top Blues Albums for February 2024 by the Toronto Blues Society. More Cotto You can read my earlier email interview with Caroline here.
