Carla Lynne Hall is a fiercely independent singer/ songwriter. Known in musician circles as the "DIY Diva" (Do-it-Yourself), the Brooklyn singer/songwriter has been writing and performing her original music and gaining fans along the way. Her music, released on her own Moxie Entertainment label, showcases her unique blend of jazz, twang, and soul.

Her warm vocal stylings and charismatic performances have been called "a cross between Norah Jones
and India.Arie". According to Rockrgrl Magazine, "Hall's velvet voice and heartbreaking songs draw you in with their richness." In 2001, Carla released her debut CD, Front and Center. It reached #3 on college CMJ radio station playlists, and she signed with the prestigious booking agency, Barbara Coppersmith & Associates. For Mother's Day 2004, Hall released "My First Child", the first single from her upcoming second CD, SUPERNOVA, which was produced by Christian Cassan.

Advance Reviews for SUPERNOVA, to be released on February 28, 2006

Indie Music Info Review:
http://www.indie-music.info/

Supernova was due for release in September, 2004, but has been slightly delayed. From what I can tell, the reason for the delay has absolutely nothing to do with the music. Like most good singer/ songwriters, Carla Lynne Hall writes of her own personal experiences - sorrows, loves and triumphs. Unlike most singer/ songwriters, Carla's worked in "the biz" for a while at EMI, has since formed her own record label to record and release her own music (Moxie Entertainment), writes a newsletter, has a couple of syndicated columns, has published a book and is working on two others and gives lectures on the music business in her spare time. What spare time? Talk about high-energy! Carla is known in musician circles as the "DIY Diva" (Do-it-Yourself). Oh, and lest I forget to mention it: her voice is beautiful and the production is spotless. My favorite song off of the album is the first and title track, Supernova in which Carla uses a celestial metaphor for a super-cute and super-catchy good old-fashioned love song. Track 5, Say Goodbye, is a jazzy upbeat song which seems to be about a smart girl who isn't taken in by a guy's good looks and great lines. Track six, Left Side Blues, is a sultry, hot blues tune about just the opposite (driven by obsession). Track ten, Lucy and Ethel, breaks your heart with a sad goodbye and she finishes off the album with a countrified slight return of the title track, Supernova, with an added steel guitar. Her style is definitely pop, but some of her songs have a decidedly country twang; others are distinctly bluesy, soulful or jazzy. What can I say about this girl? Talented. Versatile. Dedicated. Brilliant - like a star. Score: 5 STARS

Singer/songwriter Carla Hall brings a soft, folkie voice that also ventures into blues and country. Her sweet songs of love are everlasting and will warm your heart. This is her sophomore album that is gaining attention in the underground circuit with gaining comparisons to Norah Jones.
