Description

Yorkshire-dwelling singer-songwriter
Carol Hodge is a wonderful musical dichotomy. With her roots and ethics firmly set in punk as a long-term collaborator with Crass frontman Steve Ignorant, Carol is currently touring the songs of Crass around the world with The Ignorant Band, on keyboards, BVs and lead vocals. Yet Carol is also a uniquely gifted songwriter and as able to conjure up beautiful pop-infused, heart-wrenching melodies as she is screaming into the face of authority and injustice.
Described by Maximum Volume Music as
"one of the most innovative solo artists around right now", Carol describes herself as a 'seven-fingered pianist'. She was born with a rare condition called cleft
type symbrachydactyly, which means Carol has just two fingers on her left hand. This hasn't held her back as her impressive CV is testament to. Carol also performs as a keyboardist/backing vocalist with various established artists, including The Wildhearts and Steve Ignorant's Slice Of Life

Carol is joined by special guest and Compass favourite Sally Pepper
