Carolyn Wonderland

McGonigel’s Mucky Duck presents Carolyn Wonderland.

One of the most impressively powerful voices recently heard anywhere.  Able to boon, cajole, promise and growl with equal power, she plays guitar with much the same forcefulness, incorporating elements of Blues, Country, Swing, Zydeco, Surf, Gospel, Soul, and some nights, maybe even Cumbia.

A musical force equipped with the soulful vocals of Janis and the guitar slinging skills of Stevie Ray, Carolyn Wonderland reaches into the depths of the Texas blues tradition with the wit of a poet.  She hits the stage with unmatched presence, a true legend in her time.

Along with the guitar and the multitude of other instruments she learned to play – trumpet, accordion, piano, mandolin, lap steel – Wonderland’s ability to whistle remains most unusual.  Whistling is a uniquely vocal art seldom invoked in modern music, yet it’s among the most spectacular talents the human voice possesses.

“Carolyn Wonderland is the real deal!  She’s an amazing guitar player.  She whistled a solo.  She even played the trumpet!  And damn, can she sing.” – Los Angeles Times
