May 3, 2021 – Carolyn has finished a songwriting collaboration. She is very excited about this special piece of work. It was inspired by a young family member in Carolyns family. He loves Spiderman and thinks he is invincible when he has his costume on. We decided to write a song about a little boy who was having a difficult time emotionally dealing with the current pandemic. His Mom was worried about him so she encouraged him to be like his favourite super hero. If that´s what it took for him to feel safe, be your hero – Spiderman. To hear the song Spiderman, click here!
