about

Steel and Salt marks a change of direction for Carolann Solebello in several ways. Though her smooth, compelling voice and warm acoustic guitar remain the hub on which everything else turns, the sonic landscape of Steel and Salt hums with electricity, and the lyrical content lies curled in the shadow of the towers, bridges, and highways of Solebello's birthplace and forever home, New York City. The characters and stories on Steel and Salt spring from the asphalt and bedrock, from the harbor and the rivers, and are as gritty and beautiful as the world they inhabit. And, like the people of that great city, they candidly speak their minds on a range of topics, using carefully cultivated urban armor to protect tender, compassionate hearts.
