Her sound may not be as big as Texas, but it is certainly as wide-open and free-sprited. Jones attacks each song with the vigor of a wildcatter yet maintains a dusky undercurrent that drips with sensuality. - Christopher Loudon
“Carolyn Lee Jones is elegance personified. We were privileged to have her perform in our inaugural Sammons Cabaret Season, and she delivered an exciting and memorable performance. She really knows how to sell a song. Her voice is warm, silky and polished and her style is captivating and irresistible. She is a treat for the eyes and ears.” - Sammons Center For the Arts Dallas Texas
“The kickoff track to vocalist Carolyn Lee Jones’ Bon Appetit! sets the palate for an intimate set of straight-a-head jazz…..hip selections…..swinging side dish …superb accompaniment.” - In House reviewer for Jazziz
“...she has a strong voice ... there is an infectious longing in her voice...her debut recording Bon Appetit is a solid start for what will hopefully be a productive career.” - Los Angeles Jazz Scene
Carolyn Lee Jones started to sing "Take the A Train ...the show was great – Ms. Jones has great style and great vocals.” - Stu Hamstra

PERSONAL NOTE
Originally from Nebraska one day a while back she hopped on a bus and came to Dallas!
Carolyn Lee Jones's first profession was a successful buyer for luxury retail stores (based in Dallas) traveling the world. Event planning and marketing were important components of her past experience which she now brings to her music business.
