Smitty: Nice. I know you’ve been in film. Any opportunities out there to do that again?
CB: Well, you know, I’m in the Midwest now. A girl that worked with me at the record label that I was on, she actually ended up in casting and she’s a big casting agent now, so you never know what she’s gonna come up with, but they’re the ones that—she and her friend got me in that one movie and it was so much fun, I would certainly do it again. I’m not pursuing it, I’m not out auditioning. I wasn’t then, but people know of me and if they want me for that, I’m sure they’ll give me a call again.
Smitty: Yeah, so are you ready?
CB: Sure! I’m always ready. I’ve taken a lot of acting. I never aspired to be an actress because I didn’t like that part of the business too much, but I like performing and so I’m always ready.
Smitty: Yeah, that was very cool.
CB: You gotta stay ready.
Smitty: Yes indeed. Carol, I must say that I am so proud of what you’ve done with this great record and I highly recommend it for people with a bad attitude to people that are just madly in love, and those that just want to chill and settle the soul because these are just great songs. They’re not songs that would put you to sleep, as some people would think, but these are great songs to contemplate your life, to contemplate your future, to contemplate the next day and enjoy the moment, you know?
CB: Well, that’s well put. (Both laugh.) Can I quote you?
Smitty: I’ll send you a bill. (Laughs.) No, but very seriously, I not only love the songs but the design of the album. Man, I tell ya, I love that, what do you call that? The floral design on the disc itself. It’s just beautiful.
CB: Oh yeah, I know, she’s talented. I’m fortunate I have talented people around me. The girl that designed that (Ariana Wills), she does all kinds of graphic design and she came up with it. I just said some sort of design and she did it.
Smitty: Yeah, it’s gorgeous.
CB: Ariana, she’s great.
Smitty: Yeah, and the front cover is very nice, love it.
CB: Thank you
Smitty: You have a Web site as well.
CB: Yes. It’s www.carolduboc.com.
Smitty: Yeah, all right. And people can read more about the record on there and you have a My Space as well.
CB: Oh yes, My Space page, and you can find me through Wine and Music.
Smitty: Yes, and when does the record drop?
CB: April 22nd is the release date.
Smitty: Very cool.
CB: It will be available everywhere.
Smitty: Oh, very nice. Well, I certainly anticipate a lot of great things with this record and I wish you all the best with it and hopefully we’ll get to catch up at some point in person.
CB: Oh yeah, we’re closer now.
Smitty: Yeah, how ‘bout that? Yeah, you’re a Midwesterner.
CB: It’ll be great.
Smitty: Yeah. Carol, thank you so much for just sharing this great project with us and talking about this wonderful record, and I would say to you, keep making great music, my friend.
CB: Okay, thank you so much.
Smitty: All right, we’ve been talking with the fantastic and amazing Ms. Carol Duboc. She has a wonderful new record out and it’s called Songs for Lovers and it truly has songs for lovers, for all audiences of great music. I highly recommend this album. Carol, thank you so much and have a wonderful 2008, my friend.
CB: Thank you. You too.
Baldwin “Smitty” Smith
