Music is embedded in Carolyn Messina’s DNA. She’s been playing piano & guitar almost her entire life and has been writing original music and lyrics since high school. At 18, Carolyn was in a serious car accident; her head injuries left her with little or no memory of her life before the accident – names, faces, events were all a blur. Fortunately, she retained the ability to play music. Making a living in marketing communications, Carolyn’s passion for making music has never waned. Her original compositions have won national awards, including her score for “Women Raise the Roof,” a documentary for Habitat for Humanity featuring an all-women build in Paterson, NJ. In 2009, Carolyn started performing her original songs at open mics and coffeehouses in the Metro area and has already been booked as a featured performer at Piano’s in Bloomfield, NJ; The Fine Grind in Little Falls, NJ & The Bitter End in NYC. Carolyn just finished recording and producing her first two CDs of original songs.
