The Profile

Caro Emerald (born Caroline Esmeralda van der Leeuw, Amsterdam, 1981) is a Dutch singer who fuses 1930s-style jazz and cabaret with modern pop and electronic elements. She broke through with the album Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor and followed with The Shocking Miss Emerald.

Her debut album Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor was a commercial breakthrough; The Shocking Miss Emerald (2013) was produced by David Schreurs and Vincent Degiorgio. Reviews note her background as a student/teacher of jazz vocals and a distinct vintage, cabaret-influenced singing style.

Two DeBaser reviews praise Caro Emerald's blend of 1930s-style jazz and modern pop/electronic touches. Reviewers highlight her distinctive, cabaret-like vocal delivery and strong production by David Schreurs and Vincent Degiorgio. The Shocking Miss Emerald is described as an evolution toward more acoustic, string-driven arrangements and a 1920s Paris atmosphere. Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor is noted as her breakout record with singles like "Back It Up" and "Stuck."
