Hi! Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet. 

My artist project started as a fledgling idea concocted at an outdoor table of a coffee shop in Florence, Italy. There I sat with my best friend on a fabulous vacation paid for by my cushy, nearly six-figure tech company salary. As we were discussing, life, work, and the big world in front of you as a 23 year-old, I came to the realization that this friend, coincidently also named Caroline, was one of a handful of people I knew working in the arts. Caroline found a job in marketing at a Tony award winning regional theatre mere months after graduation. I, on the other hand, was over a year into a job I didn't care about in a field I stumbled upon. Before long, I broke down in tears over the idea that college might've been the last time I would perform on stage or sing for a crowd. Making music went from an essential every day practice, to the 20 minute background soundtrack of my commute to and from work. 

I had never felt further from my creative impulses. It was the longest period of my life I had gone without making music. So I did what any twenty-something would do, slowly strategize an exit from my job, leave the only city I have ever known, and blow up my comfortable life for the sake of some greater, intangible sense of “fulfillment”.

It started with voice lessons and songwriting classes. Two years later, I shared my songs with strangers for the first time. I've been addicted to how I felt that day ever since. Since March 2025, I've been singing my songs around New York City for whoever will listen. Since following the crazy instinct I had to pursue music that I  dreamed up on a Tuscan September morning, I have learned more about myself and accomplished more that I ever thought was possible. I'm glad I listened to that version of me (even though her brain was clearly not finished developing lol). I love singing my songs. I want to do it forever :)

xx, Caroline Claire

More Than You Can Take

Caroline Claire

More Than You Can Take is an acoustic-pop ballad that recalls the perils of being young and in love. Caroline Claire's poignant lyrics hark back the deep pain we experience with our first heart break. The meandering guitar picking and swells of drums capture the depth of these larger-than-life feelings of youth.

Young Woman's Game
