Lo Carmen is a mesmerizing cinematic storyteller, weaving epic balladry, country soul and psych folk in honeyed tones;
a modern day Bobbie Gentry.

Carmen mainly performs solo, armed with just an electric guitar - or sometimes accompanied by an ever evolving line-up (which has in recent times included members of The Mess Hall and The Holy Soul. She has shared stages with the Dirty Three, Mick Harvey, Kinky Friedman, The Handsome Family and The Drones.

Raw, lush and atmospheric, 'Everyone You Ever Knew (Is Coming Back To Haunt You)', the Australian born/Los Angeles based songstress’s fifth solo album, builds on her ever-growing reputation for killer songwriting, atmospheric stylings and entirely distinctive vision.

‘...stark country-soul and shimmering blues ...a direct line to the heart’ No Depression

'I could live inside the atmospheric Valium of this album, forever listening to Lo Carmen drip her honeyed vocals over meandering songs and cinematic sounds ... true to all of Carmen’s creations, it’s distinguished by her ability to summon a decade-defying sound and wind up in a world of her own making.' Pan Magazine

'...maneuvers in shadowy and palpable Lou Reed-esque honky tonk realism with so much rare and raw individuality that it takes you aback at first listen. Then your eager addiction slowly burns inside until you’ve played the album on repeat countless times and you’re lost... a true storyteller ....' Global Texan Chronicles

'She adds soul to slowcore and mystery to melancholy and the result is an album that will draw you in deeper and deeper with each listen as you fall under her atmospheric spell.' Post To Wire

'... if you like making out with the person you love in the back seat of an old car on the hills overlooking the abyss of the city while listening to haunted quasi-country vibes and the Velvet's Loaded, then this should be the soundtrack to your next moments. Something to listen to as you slow dance in the headlights and breathe that the spring air and cease your stumblin' through life for five or six minutes as you hook your arms around your loved one and feel the magic.'
