Synia Carroll
Sarasota
Empowering. Entertaining. Effervescent…. These words only begin to describe the breath of fresh air Synia Carroll brings to the music scene. A jazz vocalist with smooth and soulful vocals, Synia is a storyteller that captivates audiences with every inspiring performance. She energetically engages directly with the crowd, adding her personal flair to match the mood and story of each song. Her listeners are taken on a journey spiced with nuances of Nina Simone, Nathalie Cole, Sara Vaughan, Dee Dee Bridgewater and Diane Reeves, all blending beautifully into a unique and refreshing style.
Synia's critically acclaimed new album, "Water is My Song," was released this spring. It was produced by veteran New York City-based pianist John DiMartino, who performs on the album along with saxophone-legend Houston Person, and several A-list session players.
