2021: A message from Carol
We miss you and can’t wait to see you again someday when it’s safe to play, but we’ve got brand new studio recordings coming soon!
Goddess Of Imperfection,
Blue Forest,
& Wild Cry
The music does more than evoke a shadow-world of mysterious, often misunderstood creatures, from sideshow freaks and b-movie monsters to love’s obsessive victims. It creates that world, bringing it into audible being through her stunningly versatile four-octave voice and expressive, impeccably crafted songs. Her live shows draw audiences in with an intimacy and intensity that is both theatrical and deeply musical. Whether performing as a duo with pianist Matt Kanelos or with a full-band version of Spookarama (named for Coney Island’s iconic dark ride) with music director, Dred Scott, and featuring some of New York’s most inventive players, her repertoire – ranging from mad, carnival-ride tangos and waltzes to dramatic Bowie-esque rock and intricate, semi-acoustic art songs is unified by the singer’s visionary commitment to the beauty of strangeness and the strangeness of beauty. Carol Lipnik’s songs and performances are, in the truest sense, enchantments.
She may be the only mermaid represented at the Stereo Society.

From happier times:
“Of all the many ongoing weekly gigs in this city, it’s impossible to think of a more happening one right now than this show…If state-of-the-art songcraft and magical voices are your thing, miss this at your peril. Years from now, people will be saying they were here even if they weren’t.” New York Music Daily
Carol Lipnik’s latest release is the art-song collection, Almost Back to Normal. Recorded using a 1895 Steinway grand piano in the world-class sonics of Peter Karl Studios in Brooklyn, it’s a collection of tersely intense song-craft and longer-scale, psychedelically-tinged mood pieces Find out more about the album, buy from CDBaby or from iTunes
