Description

Caroline and Nancy sing as the duo "The Girls from Away", and have been working and singing together for years. They love to explore the rich musical heritage and connections between the British Isles and Americas through their songs and rich harmonies. They perform locally and really enjoy researching and sharing traditional songs as well as writing their own. They have produced and performed programs such as "From Maritimes to Mountains - The Songs of the Eastern Seaboard from Newfoundland to the Carolinas" and the upcoming "Songs for the Women".

Caroline has loved to sing since before she could speak. She is an award-winning, published poet who writes in Scottish Gaelic and has been featured in programs on the BBC Radio for her original songwriting. She also loves to spin, weave, celebrate nature, and travel. Her songs can be found at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-tYC3-HEgufl445tmzm4QQ.

Nancy began playing guitar and singing in church at the age of 13. It was the music of

John Denver that inspired her to branch out from Christian worship songs to folk music. She has also written songs about family and the New England coast. Nancy’s other interests include walks in the country, kayaking, visiting Maine, and being creative (painting, drawing, decorating). You can find a few of her songs on reverbnation. https://www.reverbnation.com/nancywalsh
