me. She has an amazing gift for

 Cari

vocal teacher and vocal guide, a source
of deep holistic health knowledge, to
promote natural vocal health, and simply
a wonderful human being. She is a pleasure
to work with, as well as inspirational
on an artistic level. Cari can connect
to what pop, rock, and soul singers

 I
cannot explain how amazing it has been
working with Cari Cole, she is an incredible
vocal coach. Not only does she have
wonderful talent, she is also an amazing
teacher, singer, musician, and individual.
My voice has most definitely taken a
change, a change for the better. I see
things on a different level now, and
that's thanks to her. What a wonderful
person I may add, you feel the comfort
and great vibe the instant that you
are in her presence. Because of Cari,
I was taught that there is a mental
aspect of singing, AMAZING! Cari has
a great way of making you feel at ease,
and she gets down to the core details
in training of the voice. I cannot be
more content with the changes! It has
been a great journey, and still continues!
I am totally a huge fan of her natural
way of protecting the voice, I wouldn't
have it any other way. She has educated
me so much, keeping me on a strict regimen,
and motivating me to really dig deep.
It's outstanding!!! Thank You Cari!

 Working
With Cari Cole has changed my life as
a singer and performer! She's not only
an incredible voice coach, she's an
amazing person as well. When I first
began seeing Cari a few years ago, my
voice was in pretty bad shape. I saw
her twice a week for about six months
and my voice started improving tremendously!
Because of Cari I’m able to reach
notes I never thought were possible.
I've also learned how to save my voice
from overuse. I recently embarked on
a three-month college/university tour
playing approximately forty shows. A
few months before I left, I was extremely
concerned about losing my voice on tour.
Because of the work I had done with
Cari and all her lessons I brought on
my iPod, my voice was in incredible
shape throughout the entire tour. Cari
has changed my voice, improved my life
and is a wonderful friend. I highly
recommend her to anyone who wants to
improve their skills as a singer, musician
and performer!

 I
have been blessed in my life to have
many great teachers-experts whom are
passionate about their craft and the
art of teaching. Cari Cole is the consummate
teacher, creative artist and the ultimate
voice coach. I feel fortunate to have
found her and my craft, artistry and
profession have improved greatly in
the time that I have studied under her.
Her unique blend of vocal approaches,
her deep understanding of vocal health
and the physical body in addition to
her insight into the mania of being
an artist and the climate of the industry
make her singularly apt at dealing with
and constructively helping vocalists
and song writers. She had developed
a phenomenal training program that,
when followed, is quite literally fool-proof.
Like a professional athlete’s
training program, it strengthens and
stretches while never whitewashing an
artist’s original style. I highly
recommend that anyone who is serious
about becoming the greatest vocalist
they can be utilizes Cari’s program
if not work with her personally.

 I
can't stop reading all your information.
A year ago, I had a camera down my throat
to find swollen and even bruised chords
and thank God no nodes... I was pretty
frightened. I'm on my way to recovery.
No smokes, no alcohol and Zantac. But
I paid so much for that Doctor/vocal
specialist and did not receive a quarter
of the information I'm learning from
your site. I'm still paying him off.
You've made yourself a new student.
I can't thank you enough.
Dave Tamkin,

 I
listened to your 5 Ways to Move From
Dreamer to Diva Teleseminar and am so
grateful I did. I can feel the years
of experience, work, and tenacity in
your soothing voice, and am inspired
knowing that you have walked your talk.
Thank you so much for what you are offering.
I am registering TODAY for the 6-week
program and am so excited. (I am currently
working on my 6th (3rd studio) album
in Ojai, CA and was a referred a link
to you by a friend in Seattle just a
week ago. Thanks again, and looking
forward to this new journey ahead with
you. THANK YOU for shining SO BRIGHT
so folks like me can be inspired to
dig deeper, deeper, and then fly higher!

 Working
with Cari, as well as getting to know
her as a person has been a true blessing.
Her vocal exercise program have been
a tremendous help in developing my voice
and therefore taken my confidence on
stage and in the studio to the next
level. On top of that, Cari is an all
around life coach who helps you stay
healthy in body, spirit and mind. Besides
the day-to-day practical tips, she offers
key advice to the many challenges a
performer can face; from dealing with
stage fright to actual advice on how
to further your career. She truly cares
about her students and her support and
patience have been priceless to me.
Cari helps you understand that there
are absolutely no limits to what you
can do.

 Cari
Cole goes so far above and beyond what
I ever expected from a voice coach.
Cari is so attentive and sincere in
providing tailored vocal guidance, while
she also makes the extra effort to help
each student find his or her unique
voice... Cari Cole is a unique source
of knowledge, energy and inspiration
for the serious student.

 Cari
is without question the finest teacher
I have encountered on either side of

is remarkable and her ability to convey

never learned so much in such a short
period of time. Jon-Paul Lindsay,

 Working
with Cari Cole isn't like working with
a basic vocal coach. In the past year,
not only have I gained a tremendous
amount of knowledge about the voice
and proper technique, but I have also
gained a valuable relationship with
a person who truly cares about making
me a better musician and songwriter.
I highly recommend Cari to any professional
or aspiring singer.

 Tears
filled my eyes as I walked out from
Cari’s Performance Class. I had
just moved to a higher level of singing.
Cari Cole combines the necessary technical
aspects with the emotional connection
that creates a truly moving and powerful
performance. Thank you Cari for introducing
me to the methods of The Cole Technique...
I have reached an exciting new level
of being a vocalist, but more importantly,
an artist.

 I
came to Cari's studio because I knew
there was something unique inside me.
I had been searching for the personality
of my voice. Cari Cole helped me unveil
myself and the recording of my album
then became a more honest and special
work for me. I recommend Cari to anyone
who needs to find him or herself in
their voice.

 I
am a singer-songwriter and have been
to a number of teachers, but have not
found any who helped me overcome the

as Cari's studio has. Margaret

 Cari
Cole is the teacher of all teachers.
At once mentor, coach, role model, singer
and musician - an endless wealth of
information and inspiration. Cari is
a real teacher - her need to share information,
dispel myths and encourage musicianship
goes beyond what other so-called teachers
do. She is on a mission and her love
for her work is infectious. Since I
began training with Cari Cole two years
ago, I've made immense, immeasurable
progress in my career and in my studies,
never mind my new found vocal range!
Cari rules!

 I
resisted vocal training long enough
to be in serious pain from vocal misuse
by the time I started studying with
Cari. I knew I needed not only a technically
proficient person but also an understanding
and supportive one. That's what Cari
has been for me. By the third lesson
I was not only getting my voice back,
but also a much stronger and more controlled
instrument. Her passion for teaching
and intuitive approach sets her apart
from anyone I have ever studied under.

 Working
with Cari Cole has helped me to unify
all areas of my craft, allowing me to
build strength and flexibility with
a strong foundation of knowledge of
the physical, mental and practical aspects
of the voice. In turn this has opened
up my expression in song during recording
and in performance. I have realized
the benefits of correct alignment, focus
of breath, sound and the ultimate goal
of relaxed physique combined together
to release the full potential of the
voice. Noel Harnden / singer,

 I
have experienced several breakthroughs
as a result of one-on-one training with
Cari Cole in her private vocal technique
and performance program. I now sing
with much more ease and confidence.
For the first time in years, I enjoy
singing again and no longer experience
pain in my throat. Cari has helped me
develop my own style and has challenged
me to dig deep within and share my emotions
through my music. Working at Cari Cole
Voice Studios has inspired me to follow
my dreams and fulfill my true passion
of singing.
Debbie Tassone / singer, songwriter,

 Cari
Cole's coaching helped me take my craft
to another level. By using her marking
techniques and finding other ways to
approach a song using one's own emotion
and expression, I find now that I am
comfortable singing without over pushing
or thinking technically. I have made
up my mind that when I am on top of
the charts I will always keep Cari Cole
as my personal voice trainer and consultant!

 Cari
is not a voice teacher, she is a voice
MASTER... By the second lesson she was
able to identify all of the things I
was doing wrong and had solutions to
each one.

about Cari’s Music |
A
pop chanteuse and beyond, Cari
Cole wields the dramatic vocal
execution of performers like Kate
Bush plus a smidgen of Sarah Brightman.
Songs like A Million Kisses and
Heaven would have the potential
to sound overly sentimental in
the hands of a less talented and
inspired vocalist. But, Cole soars
above the rest.

Hey
Cari, I accept! How cool that you found
me. Isn't this place amazing? I love
your music! It's playing from your site
as I type this. I look forward to hearing
more. I've heard of the Four Agreements,
and I know the person who brought it
to Eugene. She just came back from a
gathering in Mexico. I haven't had a
chance to hear her experience yet. She
got sick after she came home. Anyway,
thank you for bringing it to my attention.
I don't believe in accidents, and so
I will look into it further. Thank you,
Blessings of Peace and Healing.

Putting
on the CD, The Circle of Fire is entering
an experience of Love. As Cari sings,
in every moment, There is Love in You.
The music lingers on long after and
her words waft through my consciousness.
Cari's vocals and beautiful musical
accompaniment are clear, strong, spiritual
yet distinctly human. She sings of the
ache and longing for the human spirit
to soar! I thank Cari for bringing Spirit
to light and life.

We
have been listening to your CD almost
every day since receiving it. We cannot
adequately express with words the wonderful
gift your music has been for us. The
tears flow often, in awe and gratitude
for life, love, and the joy that we
are alive. I gave your CD to a friend
as a gift, and she listens to it every
morning as a way to start her day. Thank
you so much, Cari, for sharing your
gift with the world!

I
am playing the song Beautiful Life again
this Sunday morning on 91.9 FM. I really
can't explain what happened when I initially
played your record. A certain sense
of abundance, joy and warmth filled
me that I can't explain. It was a feeling
of being in the Circle of Fire. For
the first time in a long while I could
understand a lot of things that I have
not been able to understand. Thank you
for your music.

We are blessed by your expression of
your love.
Noreen Tierney |
My
sister-in-law sent us your CD as an
anniversary gift last month and we immediately
fell in love with your music and your
wonderful voice. When my husband put
on the CD he sat and listened to it
in its entirety and cried through most
of it having been so inspired. My husband
and I were so inspired by your CD that
I called Amber-Allen Publishing and
opened a professional account and immediately
ordered 10 of your CD's. I have the
Center for Transformational Healing
in Soquel, California. I am in a 60
person choir (we've been together for
9 years) that sings inspirational and
spiritual songs in many languages. Our
sold out holiday concert sang songs
in 11 different languages including
ending Silent Night in sign language.
We've been looking for a song for the
couple's group to perform and I think
Circle of Fire Prayer would be perfect.
Ilianna Culver-Dufford |
Thank
you for your music. It soothes my soul.
I would like to get an autographed copy,
so I'll be ordering another shortly.
I am going to try to get the program
director of the local radio station
to play this one. They have a program
on Sunday mornings called acoustic sunrise
and I think I can get them to play it
on this program; it is a perfect match.
Charlie Wyatt |
Just
wanted you to know that I LOVED your
CD. It was nice to hear something with
some substance for a change. I particularly
liked the Circle of Fire Prayer song
- I got it in my head and couldn't get
it out. You know how that happens? I
have already bought two to send to friends,
plus a copy of the book to go with one
of them.
Lisa Kalies |
I
would like to share an experience with
you. Last night I had a session with
my energy/body worker and I had her
play your CD during our session. It
was amazing !!!! There is no way that
I can describe in words what happened.
I have been working with Susan for 6
years and we both knew that transformational
work was happening via your music. I
gave her one of the 5 CDs I bought and
she wanted your web page so could order
more as she will play your CD during
her sessions with other clients. I will
spread your music to all who come for
it.

Cari's
The Circle of Fire album has been a
constant companion of mine ever since
it was released. Cari's words are insightful,
evocative, compassionate, and inspiring.
Her voice is rich, emotive, soothing,
and joyous. I have always loved don
Miguel's The Circle of Fire prayer,
and her music has brought out emotional
and inspirational effects out of this
already beautiful prayer to a level
I did not think was possible. You need
not know anything about don Miguel's
The Four Agreements or any of his writing
beforehand in order to appreciate Cari's
new album. This is a beautiful work
in itself, and I highly recommend it
to anyone who wishes to immerse him/herself
in the voice and words of inspiration
and love.

When
I first heard this record played at
my friend's house, I was blown away.
I asked my friend to lend me the CD,
but she laughed and said no way, get
your own. I don't wanna be without it!
Throughout the day I couldn't get the
songs out of my head. I am so glad I
found this CD. Cari's vocals are stunningly
beautiful. She sings very authentically
with no hype , no gimmicks. The piano,
guitars and drums are layered perfectly.
They don't interfere with the power
of her songs, but accent them tastefully.
At first I wanted to listen to Heaven
over and over again but after listening
through the rest, I have to say they
all are gems. It's amazing that the
album doesn't have any radio play that
I know of yet but just a word of mouth
following. The record is also recorded
so well. The production and sound of
the record is aesthetically drop dead
gorgeous. It not only inspires me vocally,
musically and sonically, but I have
found that the lyrics help me to rise
above situations that normally get me
down or frustrated. A must have!
A music fan from New Mexico |
Listening
to Cari's music lifts my heart and opens
my voice to the sweetest and beautiful
lyrics and feelings. Experiencing the
words and the melody as it move over
and through my body is tender and strong
... like the soft beat of a butterfly's
wings. Cari's music just feels sooooo
good!
Terri Wickwire from Petaluma,

Life
in general can pose some great challenges.
No one is immune. It is always inspirational
to 'witness' a human being who has managed
to significantly transcend through years
of hard work and self examination. Obviously
the warrior within was not allowed to
become lazy but rather gained in strength
and clarity--to arrive at the point
of giving. This is what I hear and what
I have received through Cari's music.
Rosewolf from St. Paul, Minnesota |
At
the time I purchased this CD, I was
going through some difficult changes
in my life. I listened to Cari's CD
several times a day, for weeks. It reminded
me of the Beautiful Life I was living
which included the shifting structure.
I would wake up in the middle of the
night and I would hear myself, from
with-in my dreams singing this healing
music to myself. Cari's music is magic.
Miguel Ruiz's inspiration is alive...
Robin C. Nicolaus from Santa
Rosa, CA |
The
Circle of Fire CD has become my saving
grace in bumper to bumper traffic jams
(and anywhere else I get frazzled).
Cari Cole's amazing vocals and lyrics
instantly and effortlessly transport
me to a place that is calm and relaxed,
even during the most hectic days. If
you want a delightful way to center
yourself and remember how wonderful
life really is, then this CD is for
you. It will take you to heaven.
A Grateful Listener from NJ

The
music is hauntingly beautiful. Each
song has a strong spiritual message
and is underwritten with such love that
it seems as though Cari is singing directly
into your heart. Much to my surprise,
I often find myself spontaneously singing
one of these songs. Sometimes I wake
up in the morning and the first thing
I hear in my mind is Cari's voice. And
this is a beautiful way to wake up.

was inspired to write these songs after

You could say the dream of heaven was
channeled through her to create this
beautiful album! I listen to it as a
way to re-focus my intent on what is
important in this dream and to be in
love at all times...You can't help but
feel her message not only in the words
but in the heart the music conveys.
So, take a chance...you won't be disappointed!
Sheri Rosenthal from Tierra

Hi
Cari, In case I haven't told you….
your CD is breath taking. I put your
website link in the pod discussion I
did about true love. (It is also in
my blog).You have a tremendous gift!
I'm serious. I know so very many musicians
and singers and I'm a picky wench when
it comes to the tone of someone's voice.
You've got this gorgeous powerful, clear
and bell like tone to your voice with
a heart full of resonance. It is an
inviting voice and quite spell binding.
I feel like Spirit picked an awesome
soul to deliver a message when you were
chosen to sing!
Jill |
WOW,
what a gift you have! I checked your
profile cause you seemed to be *everybody’s*
friend, then I listened to your MP3
stream, downloaded your album from ITunes,
and I'm won over, I have a new favorite
singer/songwriter. I love it that you
know and sing about how all that we
seek is right in front of us, right
here, right now. You say in your songs
what it took me a lifetime to figure
out. Namaste.

OMG!!!
You've brought tears to my eyes, and
all I did was listen to the music on

Hey
Cari! Your music is beautiful! I love
The Four Agreements (and Mastery of

a companion CD either. It's great! I
love conscious lyrics! I'll get it on

forward your site to my friends. :)
In love and light.

Hi
Cari, Your music is beautiful. I went
to the myspace page and listened all
evening. It helped me shift my energy.
Very awesome! I will put a link on my
webpage if you want. That way, my clients
will be directed to you! Wonderful!
I'll have to purchase the CD... Anyway,
keep on creating!

Cari,
I got your CD about a week ago and I
have been listening to it every time
I get in my car. It is beautiful and
I especially love The Lord's Prayer.
Thank you for sharing your incredible
talent with the world. In love and light.
Katrina |
Oh
Cari! Your voice is the voice of angels.
Thank you so much for sending that beautiful
song. I will cherish it and can't wait
to get a copy of the CD. I bookmarked
your site and registered on it. And
The Four Agreements is one of my all-time
favorite books. It gave me a jolt to
read that on your profile. And to have
kudos from don Miguel Ruiz, well, I
am in awe. You are a truly special soul
on the planet! We read that book to
our children when it first came out.
We were home schooling them. And I recently
bought another copy just for me now
that I'm divorced and on my own, so
finding your music is like being given
the keys to heaven. Thank you so much
for accepting my invitation to friendship
here. It means the world to me too.
I am simply in awe of this place and
all the wondrous people in it. I feel
as though I have found the home I've
long been looking for. Thank you dear
soul. You have showered me with grace
with your beautiful voice.
Gentle Love.

you Cari, I have a fondness for the
4 Agreements; it’s the first spiritual
book I ever read. I think I bought at
least 8 copies over the years, that
were all give-aways to people I love.
I’ll have a look and listen to
your site. BTW, I love your tree hugger
photo :) Have a lovely day. In Light.

-Your music is beautiful! Not just the
quality of lyrics and instrumentation,
but the whole story infusing it with
power and grace. I love that you went
and spent time with Ruiz and how your
work with him as a mentor has opened
up your vision for your music.
Deeply smiling.

Hey
Cari, I listened to your song when I
got home and don't know if there's anything
left to say that you haven't heard already.
When it first began, I kind of let out
a semi-obnoxious whoa! (only obnoxious
if one is with a meek and wise teacher...
tee hee!) It's beautiful Cari. I understand
the need we all have to compare ourselves
to those who have made it before us
as a point of reference for those who
might come to adore us as well. But
you need not be compared to Sarah or
Jewel. You are as unique as they are.
I would say that you are on their even
level, but why not just say that they
are on your even level? It's the same
really. I've only been on this forum
for a little while and already I'm meeting
creative people who I will consider
lifelong friends if I have anything
to say about it. And just to let you
know, I registered a few days before
I contacted you. Keep up the amazing
work new friend.. and divine lady.

Great
music Cari, Thank you for that sister.
I appreciate that. Keep up the good
work and great music. Love and Blessings.
Mike |
Hey
Cari! I just took a quick peek at your
site and I must say wow. You have a
fantastic voice. I really felt your
song. Its funny, my music list does
not even begin to touch on the things
I enjoy. My husband and I produced a
local TV show that focused entertainment
along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. I
met so many great people and developed
a deeper appreciation for those in music.
Peace.
Kris |
Cari
that is a lovely piece of music! and
lovely singing from the soul. Beautiful
is an appropriate title. many blessings
in your path as a spiritually inspired
musician!

Hi
Cari, Thank you so much for the Beautiful
gift of your song and voice. I just
listened to it this morning and what
a great song to start off my day/week.
What a true inspiration you are! I will
pass on your website to my on and offline
friends :) If you ever get to the Midwest
on tour, Madison has a bunch of great
venues to play in. I live just South
of Madison in the great Village of Oregon
with my wonderful wife and children.
Let's keep rockin' and maybe we can
get the rest of the world to wake up
too! Peace ~
Mike |
Beautiful
to hear you and from you, Cari! Of course
I hear the sisterly vocal resonance
to Sarah and Jewel, the former especially.
As the site stabilized and I listened,
a little underground spring of love
burbled up from the secret inner recesses
of my heart. I like very much your musical
connection to a text and its author.
I will check out The Four Agreements.
Well, thanks again for your message
and music. Have a wonderful moment,
hour, day, month, year, life! ;-) Peace |
Hello
Cari :) Thank you very much for your
mail, and sharing your wonderful music
with me. I am listening to your silky
voice at the moment and I really love
it. You are very talented and I want
to applaud you, I am really affected
by your creativity, and inspiration.
Cheers.
Evrim |
Cari,
I am on the site now, listening to you.
You do sound so much like the singer
of the Cranberries. I am not sure if
you know them. Beautiful voice! I think
I would be interested in buying a CD
actually in the near future. I may not
listen to it every day, but I wish to
encourage you, because I think if we
had more musicians, there definitely
would be less wars and crime. Peace
and inspiration… Your new zaadster
:)
Nada |
Dear
Cari, Thank you for sharing your beautiful,
incredible music! What a gift!
I have a dear friend who gave me The
Four Agreements a few years ago. Now,
I can give her your beautiful CD! She
will love it. I am happy for you birthing
such a wonderful project - singing from
your Soul and sharing something special
with the world.
I appreciate your sharing it with me!
With loving kindness.

Cari, heard of you before. When I was
living in CA, a very dear friend of
mine (Marianne Alderette) who lives
the Toltec way had your CD and played
a couple songs for me. I loved it then
and I love it now! You have such a beautiful
voice and a way with lyrics. I love
Sarah and Jewel. I sing at the church
I go to and have done songs from both
artists. I will have to order your CD
and maybe do one of your songs there
too, if you don't mind. When I actually
record some of my songs, I will surely
share them with you. Blessings.
Lisa |
I
just finished reading don Miguel's The
Voice of Knowledge and it also has been
very moving/enlightening. Your music
is awesome! Musically talented people
just amaze me and it is so cool to know
that there is music inspired by The
Four Agreements!
I read the great comment on your profile
by our shared friend Lainee which also
tells me that I am going to have to
pick up a copy of your CD, because I
need inspiration every day to remind
me of heaven on Earth. You are blessed
and full of Light! Thanks for your heart
felt invitation.
Mike |
Hi
Cari, I listened to the song on your
website. It was very beautiful and your
voice reflects your connection with
what you write. While I appreciate very
much the words (I love them) I hear
an energy in music… a vibration
and that vibe (to be somewhat cliche)
says way more about the energy of the
spirit reaching out. I loved your reaching
out. It is life and love affirming I
felt beyond the words. Thank you for
you loving attention and contact. Have
the greatest weekend! Blessings Unending!
Ben |
Hi
Cari, your music is gorgeous. the sound
of your voice tempted my boyfriend away
from his book yesterday. now that's
powerful.
Kathleen |
Dear
Cari, I just got in from my day…
I took your CD with me and listened
to your beautiful voice while I was
running around doing all that I had
to do this day. Let me just tell you
that every song moved me… from
your exquisite voice to the words to
the melodies. Your music reached straight
into my heart and soul brought tears
to my eyes and filled me with a myriad
of emotions… especially gratitude
for all that is opening in my own life
at this time. Your music was a perfect
gift. These words that I am writing
to you don’t even touch how I
feel about listening to your music.
Truly your voice is a most blessed gift
you have to share. I hope you go far
and wide touching others as you have
touched me. Many many blessings.
Lainee |
Cari,
LOVE your music! It is of such depth
without sounding sappy, as truly meaningful
music often can. I’ve bought a
copy of Circle of Fire, and can’t
wait to pop it into my player! How wonderfully
integral of you to marry your spiritual
and musical endeavors! I wouldn’t
compare your voice to Sara McLaughlin’s
though. I thought Jewel at first, but
the more I listened, your uniqueness
revealed itself. Your singing is beautifully
skilled, and polished, yet remains accessible
and human… an absolutely first-rate
union of vocal gift and vocal training,
and rather incomparable, IMHO :)
Jeff, NYC |
HI
Cari, Wouldn't it be nice if THAT sort
of music was the focus of our Grammy’s?
imagine that being the world we lived
in. nice that you are working to put
consciousness out with your voice and
performance. om…
David Monk |
BEAUTIFUL!
I just listened to the track you sent
me ~ divine vibrations of a soothing
soul ~ kudos ~ I thank you, indeed!
Namaste~
*ISIS MOON* |
Cari,
Thank you so much for contacting me
and sharing your beautiful voice and
music which was really well produced…
When I get further along on my visionaries
documentary, I would like to consider
using one of your songs…as I am
certain there is one that will perfectly
fit….
Jeff Hutner |
Hi
Cari, Wow. let me just tell you, your
music is amazing. it’s so positive!
I will have to expose my students to
it. I’m a teacher. the four agreements
have impacted my life as well. and some
of my students as well. Where can I
hear more of your music? I would love
to see it live. thank you for sharing
yourself with me. your music is like
a soul hug!
Keri |
Cari,
Thanks so much for your message and
for introducing me to yourself and your
music. I visited your website and it
is just awesome! The Four Agreements
is such a special work, and your album
inspired by that book is incredibly
lovely. What a wonderful combination
you have – doing great work in
the world and using music as your medium.
That's about a perfect duo in my book!
Barbara |
Cari,
Re: Circle of Fire, INTERESTING! Well
keep up the good work.. you're changing
everyone.
Syrrok |
Cari,
I'm sure you've been paid this complement
many times before but I truly think
it's phenomenal that you have set a
life goal to change the world through
your music and that you're actually
going for it 100%. I admire you for
that.
Walter |
Hi
Cari, I had no idea there was a CD of
music inspired by the book! That is
so cool and your voice is beautiful
too. How cool! I will definitely pick
up a copy. Bright blessings.
Bhrigha |
Cari,
Wow, your voice is amazing and your
music is beautiful! I used to work for
a record company and it makes me so
happy when someone says that they have
music out there and then it turns out
to be something awesome. Thank you for
your music and for your lovely words!
Rapunzel |
Hi
Cari! Beautiful Music!!! Great work!
I am a big fan of Sarah McLaughlin,
and have been blessed to be on tour
with her a short while. You do sound
a lot like her. Beautiful voice. I'd
love to be on your list, so I can know
what your updates are etc. Thank you
for the invitation! Love.
Hemalayaa |
Cari,
You are beautiful, your voice is beautiful….

extra special vibration….something

are already top hits…I know this…I
will forward you to all….thank

Hi
Cari, Even though the CDs came a few
days ago – today was the first
real opportunity I’ve had to listen

Greetings,
Cari. Thanks for sharing The Circle
of Fire MP3 with me. I loved it, and
promptly went to your web site and purchased
the CD. And I shared word of it with
two of my closest friends. I'd be happy
to share the word further, as well,
through my Sacred Sisters, Wise Women
blog, which has a growing following.
Wishing you very well! Love and blessings.
Jamie |
Hi
Cari, Thanks for the invite. I listened
to your music and it sounds great. Beautiful
songs and great production. Sounds like
you really poured your heart and soul
into it. The world needs inspirational
music of a spiritual nature more than
ever, especially music that is performed
at a world class level. Congratulations!
Matt |
Hey
Cari, I took a quick listen to your
music and it’s fantastic. I can’t
wait to hear more. I am a theatre actress
and writer myself, and lots of my friends
are musicians. I can already feel great
success your way– the tides are
changing and people want to hear this
kind of music; especially from a smoking
hot chick with a fab voice :). Great
to meet you!
Mags |
Hi
Cari, I'm really pleased to get to know
you and especially interested in the
music you mention. I am going to listen
to it right away. I have read Don Miguel's
teachings and I like what he says so
your joint effort is bound to be inspiring.
Thanks.
Uma |
Good
G'd, what a beautiful voice have you
got Cari. And what a real artist you
are.
Thank you so much for sharing this with
me. Fondest regards.
Catharina |
Hi,
I just listened to your song, thank
you. You express things beautifully.
While there are people such as you,
there's hope… Love and Blessings
to you.

Thanks
for such wonderful music, its so relaxing
and refreshing to listen to your words

sounds great … Namaste.
Steven |
Hey
Cari, you are truly divine. and what
a stunner to boot. I would love an MP3
of all the songs girl…. You should
be heard in South Africa. I loved your
soul straight away. Love.
Deanie |
Cari,
Thank you so much for your invitation!
I visited your website, listened to
your songs, and I truly enjoyed them.
Now I listed most of the time to a peaceful
music, that calms me, new age music,
with high vibrations….I buy songs
on iTunes so I will look you up there.
I hope I will read more about you soon!
Light.
Joanna |
Cari,
Thank you so much for the invite. In
fact, I have seen you around and just
never got around to contacting you yet.
I love music and I admire your work!
Thanks for sharing your sound, I will
definitely find you on iTunes. Healing
is my life, and music is definitely
a big part of that. Namaste.
Sheila |
Cari,
Thanks so much for introducing yourself
and sharing your project. I am so familiar
with the four agreements and with the
writings Don Miguel Ruiz, in fact …
I am starting the Mastery of Love….what
not a better idea then to transform
this wisdom into song so that it can
be spread throughout and open up others
to these ancient belief/meanings.
I will definitely check out your website
in depth as I want to take my time and
get as much information/understanding
as possible and be able to listen to
your music without any interruptions….…thank
you so much and Wow, what a wonderful
opportunity you have had to work with
such a beautiful soul/ teacher as Don
Miguel Ruiz…Many Blessings…
Shelley |
Hi
Cari,I listened to the MP3 song you
offer and loved it!! You have a beautiful
clear voice that is as strong as your
lyrics.. it's beautiful how you sing
about embracing all your emotions. Have
a wonderful day.
Jenn |
Wow,
that music is beautiful. I found you
on MySpace real quick, and now I'm listening.
I've been thinking for ages that the
world needs musicians doing this work.
It's awesome that you are. =] Love.
Andi |
Cari,
Very nice to virtually meet you. I love
the energy of Beautiful Life. You've
got an amazing voice that radiates compassion.
And yes I do resonate quite well with
your inspirational music. I'm ordering
your CD The Circle of Fire now and look
forward to hearing it all. BTW, thank
you for the kind words. I think you’re
awesome for following your passion,
and supporting such a profound message
as don Miguel Ruiz has given the world.
And I know your CDs will inspire millions.
Keep up the wonderful work:)
Rainbow Warrior |
Cari,
you are beautiful, your voice is beautiful,
and you are doing beautiful things in

in all ways! Thanks for writing me.
Layne |
Cari,
Quite a beautiful life indeed! really
enjoyed listening to you sing. thank
you so much for the invite. I also watched
your the two videos of you performing.
you look so content up there on stage.
so cool to see someone doing what they
love.
Zo |
Cari,
thank you so much for the invitation
and music. I was able to sneak in a
quick listen at work this morning. your
voice is absolutely amazing. it’s
also refreshing to hear someone sing
with their soul; you can tell you sincerely
mean what you sing from the bottom of
your heart. it’s sad that such
depth is lacking in our popular music.
Love.
Jen |
OMG!!!
Cari?!! I LOVE YOU. I have your CD Circle
of Fire. I start every single day with
your CD. I wake up in the morning and
your songs are the first sounds that
I hear. I am so grateful to get an email
from you. You can't imagine what I am
feeling right now. I have goose bumps
all over! Your music has changed me
for the good! Love it, Love Love it!!
You Rock Girlfriend! Live Love and Laugh
out Loud!
Marilyn |
Cari,
The song is just beautiful! Thank you
so much for gifting it to me. I listened
to it several times tonight and found
myself not only singing along, but feeling
really good during it. The words actually
put me in a more positive frame of mind.
I love that! We need music like this
in our world. This is something I can
play at work (the school) that is inspiring
for me and my students. You truly have
a gift! Peace and Light.
Beth |
Oh
Cari! Thank You so much for sharing
that song with me, it's honestly become
my new most loved song. The words, the
melody, your voice, all so perfect!
This is the kind of music that helps
us all remember the beauty (oddly I'd
just wrote a blog saying something about
that before I got your message). Thank
You again for this prized gift.
Namaste Love & Peace
BeLynn |
Cari,
Your music is beautiful! Thanks for
sharing. I own a retail shop and Wine/Tapas
Bar in a tourist town in Northern Wisconsin.
I have a small music section and would
be interested in stocking your CD. This
time of year I'm not buying much inventory,
but as I get closer to spring…
Thanks for the invite and I look forward
to knowing you better.
Suz |
Cari,
I'm so glad you found me and decided
to say hello. Thanks for the cool remarks!
How did you know…'The Four Agreements'
was among the first spiritual books
I picked up and read? It is truly a
beautiful and inspirational book, and
I sell quite a few of them. So happens
I work at the local Barnes & Noble
here in Ft. Lauderdale, and I work specifically
in the spiritual/New Age area, so I
am very familiar with these books. I've
feasted on these books for several years
and have found out one thing, I can
be addicted to anything, even God…So
I’m taking a break for now….Anyway,
I went to your website and listened
to your CD and I really love it. It's
so me, I feel like you (and Don) made
it just for me. I'm going to go in to
work today and place my order. I'll
talk to Dan, our music manager, and
see what I can do. Love.
Rob |
Hi
Cari, Oh, WOW! I love it!!! I will gladly
buy a CD from you! The words are phenomenal….
and your voice is stunning! THANK YOU
so much for reaching out to me and introducing
yourself! I am quite thrilled to have
met you! Love.
MsCapriKell |
Cari,
I am currently listening to the song
that you sent me. It is so awesome!!!
I love the lyrics and WOW it is just
completely awesome!!! You are just so
amazing! Thank you and best of luck
to you too. Thanks so much! Namaste.
