CARMEL
MIKOL
"You always go to the ECMAs hoping to see and hear some
new surprises and this year was no exception. ..... I
was aware of Carmel Mikol before I arrived in Corner
Brook but by name only. I was very impressed with her
skills as a writer and singer and she has a laid-back
style that makes her an engaging performer. I understand
that she has recently started taking Halifax by storm.
That’s one storm that I want to see a bit closer to
home."
“The Cape Breton Post” Dan MacDonald

and sound that remains with you. Her voice sails over,
under, and straight through melodies reminiscent of
