出生及成长于日本冲绳的Caroline,原名为CarolineLufkin。Lufkin家的孩子们几乎都跟音乐脱不了关系。Caroline的姐姐,Olivia,在JPOP界创出一片天(发了两张专辑,今年更为NANA动画片演唱片尾曲),而弟弟Jeffery更在自己的乐队里担任吉它手和队长。父亲为德裔美国人、母亲为日本人的Caroline,十八岁进入著名的波士顿Berklee音乐学院,专修作曲。2003年毕业后Caroline回到日本,灌录了不少的livedemo,这为她带来一纸来自大厂牌的录音合约。可是Caroline毅然拒绝了这份合约,而迁往LA,向Brooklyn著名后摇厂牌Temporary Residence毛遂自荐(原因是她在日本看了Explosions In TheSky和Mono的演出,而爱上这个厂牌)。Temporary Residence马上就签下了她。
2005年,Caroline推出了首张单曲〈Where’s My Love〉(瑞典人AndreasBjorck制作)。〈Where’s MyLove〉由如雨点般落下的风铃声开启,然后Caroline以其温暖缥缈的稚气嗓音,牵起了童话般的甜美旋律,自由地穿梭在如梦如幻的电子琴和碎拍节奏间,娓娓地唱出了憧憬着爱情的少女心事:where’s my love/who could you be/someone I knewbut/let slip through/while dreaming ofyou。此动人单曲推出后,既让许多乐迷惊艳不已,纷纷把列它为自选年度单曲之一。2006年3月,TemporaryResidence终于推出了由Caroline自己操刀作曲写词的处女专辑,《Murmurs》。而这张《Murmurs》,仿佛有着一股让人忍不住要重复聆听的魔力。

Caroline Lufkin - Where is my love
一颗日本美女糖``只是甜不腻``据说Where’s My Love里的背景细碎的声响是磨牙的声音``听听看吧``
时常会在这样柔软细碎带点迷幻的女声里找不到方向。
象个迷路的孩子,似有若无的声音引导着心的方向,忽隐忽现。
总是懒惰着,倦殆着,慢慢成了习惯,似乎也就是这样恶劣的循环着。
不想改变,或者是懒得改变,谁晓得呢?
这样懒懒的傻傻的。。
Following the critical and fanatical praise of last year's otherworldly"Where's My Love" single, Tokyo's Caroline releases her enchantingdebut. "Murmurs" is a thing of blessed beauty that defies easydescription, and it's nearly impossible to attach words to thesupernatural brilliance of Caroline's songs. No samples were used.Dozens of live acoustic instruments (pianos, harps, bells, guitars,strings, and hand drums) are shaped around Caroline's crystalline voiceand threaded together by warm bass and dense beats. With atranscendence that could give you chills on a blistering summer dayjust as easily as it could warm your body on a bitterly cold night,it's no wonder Caroline has developed a reputation as queen of the"snow jams."
