Carrie Lamb and special guest Linda Carvery explore the power of music, the people and experiences that have shaped Linda’s extraordinary life, and the importance of community, mentorship and giving back.
For Linda, music is more than a performance. It is the medicine of life, with the power to heal, connect, uplift and unite, creating a shared language that brings communities together.
Carrie Lamb, Founder and Designer of FRIDA Fine Jewellery, is joined by Linda Carvery, acclaimed jazz, blues and gospel singer, performer, community advocate and recipient of an Honorary Doctor of Letters from Saint Mary’s University.
Enjoy and thank you for joining us. Cheers!
