Artist description
Harp, flute, cello and light synth. Fronted by harpist/composer/producer Carol Tatum, Angels of Venice’s sound is ethereal, joyous, uplifting, mysterious and elegant.

UPDATE AS OF AUGUST 26, 2006: An exotic CD of holiday music entitled "Sanctus" (meaning "sacred") was released Winter, 2003. "Sanctus" has been nominated for an award, and features songs such as "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" arranged with middle eastern percussion, tambura (a sitar-like instrument), harp and has a silky smooth, relaxing feel (available through CDBaby.com). This beautiful CD is actually listen-able year round.

Carol Tatum is now working on a new CD for release in early 2007. This bold, new departure for Angels Of Venice is actually Carol Tatum coming "full circle" back to her rock roots as an electric guitarist in the late 80s and early 90s. Instrumentation will be hammered dulcimer, cello, violin, east Indian female vocals, world percussion, sitar, keyboards, harp and more. The CD, entitled "Primitive Kiss", will be a two-disc release. One CD will be instrumental and the other will have four songs with rock/industrial male lead vocals. The first guest vocalist will be Charles Edward from the industrial/goth/rock band Seraphim Shock. Carol will also be doing a cover of Led Zeppelin’s "Four Sticks." Please e mail Carol with any questions about the upcoming release or to be put on the e mailing list. We will let you know when "Primitive Kiss" is out. Peace, please.
