Artist Biography
A folk musician blessed with a clear soprano voice, a keen talent for playing the harp, and a knack for crafting ethereal songs, Carol Kleyn recorded her debut, Love Has Made Me Stronger, at a small Seattle studio in 1976. Kleyn would record and self-release two more albums, 1980's Takin' the Time and 1983's Return of the Silkie, but while she had built up a small but loyal following, she put her career on hold to start a family. In time, Kleyn's albums developed a reputation among collectors of '70s freak folk and private press recordings, and in 2011, Drag City Records struck a deal with Kleyn to reissue Love Has Made Me Stronger, giving Kleyn her first proper record contract. ~ Mark Deming
