Hi. I am a Irish-based jazz composer, pianist, saxophonist, lyricist, performer, teacher.
To find out more about me wander around and check out my current projects, have a listen, get in touch

A new Carole Nelson Trio album, Arboreal, ​was released in February 2020.
Here's a blog post about The making of Arboreal
Arboreal is one of  UK All About Jazz Magazine  ​albums of the year 2020
'Nelson is, without question, as the refined language of her writing and playing constantly reiterates, a singular voice,'

An Irish tour to perform Arboreal has, of course been cancelled during the Covid 19 pandemic. However Music Network Ireland invited me to compose a piece in response to the crisis.

Stay tuned for a new Carole Nelson Trio album in 2021
