Caroline Waters (AKA Caroline Asplin) is a jazzy, heart warming and engaging entertainer with a passion for human rights and Vocal Freedom. She is a celebrated musical theatre actress, platinum recording artist, and a music ambassador for her native Norway, and is currently promoting her latest CD, Exposed, and writing a new musical, Finding Venus - Come Hell or High Waters.

Practically born on stage, Caroline starred in her first movie at age three, toured with the National Theater of Norway at seven, had a musical written for her to star in at nine, hosted her own TV show at twelve, and joined the Norwegian delegation at age fourteen to convince the IOC to let Norway host the Winter Olympics. By sixteen, she had become a seasoned celbrity entertainer with more than two thousand shows to her name! She often performed as a duo with her father, Per Asplin, who was Norway's first superstar and commonly described as Frank Sinatra, Danny Kaye and Nat King Cole-in-one.

At eighteen, Caroline's career came to an abrupt halt after a serious car accident that left her with a crushed leg, brain damage and amnesia. At nineteen, against all odds, Caroline performed for more than half a million people at the Pier in New York in conjunction with the Statue of Liberty Centennial Celebration. This performance was also broadcast to over four hundred million people worldwide.

Her life was turned upside down once again when best friend, Stefanie Stroh, disappeared without a trace in the Nevada Desert. Ironically, the intensity of the search for her friend was instrumental in bringing Caroline back to a sense of self and purpose. Three years later, she graduated with honors from Grove School of Music in Los Angeles, founded Redhead Records, and released her first CD, Compassion, in memory of Stefanie.

Since then, eight CDs, numerous music videos and two musical comedies have been written, arranged, performed and produced by Caroline, and in Spring 2011, she headlined the Norway Way Day Festival in San Francisco.

"I was immediately impressed with the sound of her voice - the interpretation of song and her extraordinary gift of vocal ability and musicianship. She is an exceptional artist who is a true musical gift and contribution to the arts of our country." Sue Raney

"Caroline Waters is an immensely gifted pianist, guitarist and vocalist. Her stylings combine the quintessential balance between Norah Jones and Ella Fitzgerald. Her beautiful sound and complexity of chords harkens back to a time when musical excellence was in its prime. She is a reminder of what was and what can be, once again, with a return to the center of making real music paramount in importance."
Jon Dowling, LIFE

"Caroline has a voice that has the power to move the listener. The beauty of texture and phrase displayed by Caroline is a vocal phenomenon. In the array of musical talents, like a new word, Caroline Waters is like a fresh seed planted on the ground of the discussion."
