An Appeal

You know how we all complain about terrible situations and then having produced a lot of hot air go on to something else? Well, I have come across an organisation called Pro Galgo - go and have a look at www.dogs-in-spain.com and then pro galgo - they are the same people.

The girl running it is called Mo Swatek and used to be a tour manager for top orchestras including the London Symphony Orchestra. She was working with the top soloists when she read about what happens to the galgos (spanish greyhounds) and podencos (Ibizan hounds) in Spain and gave it all up and with her Spanish husband moved back to Spain from Switzerland to help the dogs and publicize their plight. Amazing and humbling.

They have spent all their money on the dogs and need every penny as they owe money for vets' bills, so if there are any of you feeling rich or generous, go to progalgoenglish.wordpress.com. If nothing else, please sign the petition!

Thank you very much...

Mangoes on "One life to live"


"Mangoes" from Brilliant Midnight is scheduled to be featured in the Feb 9th episode of ABC TV's soap 'One Life To Live'. It is not 100% confirmed and we may not know for sure until after the air date.

It would be really excellent if someone in the US could copy it to DVD for Caroline and we will think of a reward. Feel free to e-mail press@carolinelavelle.com if you can help.

The show's web site (which has its own message board for anyone who wants to spread the word about Caroline's recordings after the broadcast) is here.

Banks of the Nile Remix


In 2005 Acid Planet hosted a remix competition of Caroline's song "Banks of the Nile" from the "A Distant Bell" album. We received hundreds of entries, and one of the mixes we really liked was done by Cameron Lasswell, but it was withdrawn at the time of judging. Since then, Cameron has worked some more on it and you can now have a listen to it by downloading it here. Enjoy!

The ONE Campaign

Can we stop a child in Africa from dying every 30 seconds - from something as small as a mosquito bite? Can we help send millions of children to school for as little as $16 each - less than the cost of a CD? Can we  make poverty history?

We can: Add your name to the ONE letter to President Bush, asking him to take the best opportunity we've ever had to help the world's poorest people help themselves.

Please visit the ONE Campaign website for more information.
