Carey Farrell is the quiet girl who sat behind you in history class, scribbling furiously in a battered notebook. Her perceptive, bittersweet songs come from a lifetime of playing Harriet the Spy--and she sings them in a voice as warm and comforting as the perfect cup of strawberry tea. Growing up in a musical family in suburban Maryland, Carey was surrounded by everything from show tunes to Irish rebel songs to Strawberry Shortcake at the Big Apple Disco, and it wasn't too long before she was making music herself in community and school choirs, bands, and orchestras. In college, Carey discovered the growing online folk music community, picked up her first pawn shop guitar, and taught herself how to play. It was only a matter of time before she started to share her songs with the world outside her room. Carey moved to Chicago in 2002, and soon found herself a home at the Old Town School of Folk Music, where she's studied voice, guitar, and songwriting. She plays regularly in Chicago and is a licensed street performer, and she can also be found playing Moxy Fruvous fan conventions, folk festival campsites, 24-hour knitting marathons, and anyplace else that might welcome a girl and her guitar.
