A finalist in the Kerrville Folk Festival songwriter competition, Elliott was invited back many times to perform main stage, as well as two Women of Kerrville tours with–Eliza Gilkyson, Tish Hinojosa, Catie Curtis, Christine Albert and Alisa Fineman. She even received compliments from a former Poet Laureate of the United States, Howard Nemerov, who said, “If I could sing like that, I wouldn’t bother with poetry.” Carol had much success in Europe, appearing on Geld Oder Lieber (Money or Love) in Germany to millions of people and selling tens of thousands of CD’s. She has five studio recordings of her original material recorded in Nashville.
