Carol Hodge

Carol Hodge is a British singer, songwriter and pianist who came to wider notice through her work in punk circles, including performing alongside Steve Ignorant of Crass. Her own songs are written mostly at the piano and deal directly with mental health, grief and self-doubt, often undercutting the heaviness with a dry, self-deprecating wit between verses.

She has released a series of solo albums independently and also works as a backing vocalist and keyboard player for other artists. Performances tend to be sparse, sometimes solo, with the lyrics carrying most of the weight.
