Someday Spring
Thanks for the airplay at WDET-FM/NPR Detroit and in the U.K. on Rock Radio U.K. and Blues Corner U.K.! We had a great show in January being the featured songwriters for Copper Hop Brewing’ Songwriter’s Night in St. Clair Shores, Michigan. We just got back from Traverse City, Michigan for some book/music work. We hope to be in St. Petersburg Florida for a writer’s retreat near the Gulf of Mexico in Spring.
I’m excited to be a part of the Third Coast Author and Book Festival Saturday March 21st in Grand Haven, Michigan, selling and signing my book “Detroit “Maiden Energy.” There are many amazing authors at this one, and it’s free to attend (and near Lake Michigan!) More info here at: https://thirdcoastfest.org/
In April, we may be at Bowlero in Royal Oak and a tentative Eastern Market book event in May. We have a full band/music show Saturday night, June 6th, 2026, at O’Malley’s in Livonia, Michigan. Join the Carolyn Striho Group and Mario Resto and World Chaotic for a big blast of new music and more on Saturday 6/6/26 at 7:30 pm – details coming soon.
Also in June, I’ll be at 20 Front Street in Lake Orion for the Songwriter’s Night with Steve Taylor, the St Clair Shores LIT Fest on Lake St. Clair with ML Liebler, and back at Cadieux Café with our full band and The Orbitsuns.
It’s February fog and hail, rain and snow – stay warm!
Love

“Love the colour of your heartfelt voice, lovely intro on ‘Cornered Room’ great song! ‘Let It Go’ another favourite of mine, nice rapping, and love the gypsy feel on ‘Russian Inn’ beautiful violinist. Stunning album, love it”
Striho continues to share her brilliance, effortlessly moving from bluesy and jazzy to belted out rock & roll. Her latest release, Afterthought, showcases all of these styles, along with a few more that might surprise people. The musical poetry is undeniably Striho however, and she manages to pull everything together with the ease of a seasoned pro and the flair of a master illusionist. She makes her own creative path and people can’t help but follow where she leads…
“Afterthought moves through a host of musical moods, from the moodier, darker vibe of the opening title track to exotic gypsy-rock feel of “Russian Inn” to the lively, driving sound of “Love Won’t Stay Close” which you can hear exclusively for now in this Freep First Spin debut.”
