Carmen Gomes has won many awards in the Netherlands and surrounding areas. Like so many new European singers, she sings in English. Her style is bluesy and intimate with a sexy voice that's sweet as dark tupelo honey, and her interpretations are unerring. Her newest album, "Don't You Cry" is a One Mic Recording with the Josephson C700S. Almost all the songs are first takes. Except for 'Billie’s Blues' and 'How Long' where second takes where needed in order to get the balance right.

Another Carmen Gomes release for the small Amsterdam based label Sound Liaison. "Little Blue" is a collection of songs that I feel strongly about. Songs of my youth that made an lingering impression and original compositions, some written a long time ago; some only recently. They all deal with topics of everyday life that keeps my mind occupied: the choices we make, how we define ourselves and how we deal with life in general – Carmen Gomes.

Inspired by the tale of Ines and Pedro, "Thousand Shades of Blue" is Carmen Gomes' tribute to the land of her ancestors, the sea surrounding it, and the power of impossible love.

"Torn" is the 9th Studio album from Carmen Gomes and her first for the Sound Liaison label. "Torn" was inspired partly by the tragic marriage of a close friend coming to an end and a strong artistic need for getting back to basics, The Blues. In a sense it is a concept album. The 9 songs follow each other in a logical order telling the story of a relationship falling apart. ''Come on in My Kitchen'' representing the initial attraction and the ''Thrill is Gone'' the end of love. It is pure and accesible jazz with a bluesy feel, that makes you tingle.
