Great Music Bargains

Carolyn Arends

Carolyn Arends has released 9 albums and is the author of 2 critically-acclaimed books.  15 of Arends’ songs have become top 10 radio singles on the Canadian pop and US Christian charts.  Arends has earned 2 Dove Awards, 2 Juno Nominations, and was recognized as the West Coast Music Awards’ "Songwriter of the Year".  Her newest project, Pollyanna’s Attic, is already being heralded as her most honest and beautiful work.

Accolades aside, Arends is known for songs and books that stir the soul, and a warm, engaging style that leave her audiences feeling like they’ve found a new best friend.

"I don’t write songs and books as much as I get ambushed by them," Arends confesses.  "And I write primarily about God because He is what captivates my imagination.  The idea that we can know the Creator of the Universe, and that He knows us … I simply can’t think of any more fascinating subject matter."

Arends graduated from Trinity Western University in Langley, BC, with a degree in psychology and English. She lives in Surrey, BC, with her husband Mark, eight-year-old son Ben, and four-year-old daughter Bethany.
