This is a headshot of the vocal artist and composer Sylvia Schmidt aka Sketches of Carol.

Bubbles make way for swirls of stream where larvae pop.

Dear sincere greetings.

“Unique vocal soundscapes. Cinematic and surreal melodies…

So captivating!”

Maria Chiara Argirò

This is the album cover of the 'Messengers' EP by Sketches of Carol. It shows a fairytale-like drawing of an antelope who's body is merged into the lava streams of a volcano. In the background is a deep-blue night sky with a dark red moon.

Sketches of Carol is the innovative solo project of London-based vocalist and composer Sylvia Schmidt.

With the otherworldly MESSENGERS EP, Sketches of Carol delivers crystal-clear vocals set to a spellbinding backdrop of intricate production (Gonçalo Abrantes), with a soaring violin performance (William Newell, Solem Quartet) that transports the listener to outer space.

The EP is inspired by NASA’s Golden Record and playfully reverberates the beauty of our natural world that so desperately needs protection. Sonically, it serves as a homage to Schmidt’s love of science fiction, paying tribute to the stunning sound worlds that can be heard in Ridley Scott’s ‘Blade Runner’ (1984) and the 1980’s Star Wars trilogy.
