Inside Your Session

Private 1:1 A&R (Artist & Repertoire) Session | 60 min

with CEO/Founder of CCVM Label w/o Walls, Cari Cole

In the A&R Direction Session we design the sound + direction for your next project. Participants fill our curated A&R Profile Form that details your influences, listening history, current obsessions, and profiles your defining moments in life to extract your “why”. Cari reviews your form prior to the session and then during the session creates an official A&R Profile complete with your sound, direction, your artist message and a few song concepts that are aligned with your sound + message. 

*Comes with an A&R Profile of your sound and direction to give to your producer and use with your next project. 

*If you’ve already had our A&R in SSC or ASM with Cari, this session can also be used to listen to demos written for an existing or upcoming project Songs sent in ahead of time will be listened to prior to the session.

Session held on Zoom.

*Returning clients receive a discounted rate. Write in to info@caricole.com for more information. Return clients can book A&R Direction Sessions to continue building out their sound + direction for a new project as well as work on song concepts with Cari. At our label we hold A&R Sessions every month as it is a vital part of developing the artist’s vision and the direction of the writing for the success of the album. 

*There are no refunds for private sessions.


"Cari is truly a one of a kind, rare diamond in the music industry and in the very saturated field of people claiming to care about artists. Cari is passionate, cares deeply and invests herself wholeheartedly in helping the artists she serves and walks with. Her support and guidance to me were invaluable in the making of and release of my last record, and in setting me on course to establish the solid foundation needed to build the career and business I've been dreaming of for a long. Cari gave generously of her wisdom, her insight, and her lived experience as an artist and world renowned voice coach in helping me up my vocal technique prior to recording, in honing in on and shaping the sonic direction for the record using her A & R skills and process, and in creating my best work to date. She has been a dream come true ally, team member and guide along my artist path and I would highly recommend Cari's mentoring, voice coaching, A & R process and all that she offers to any artist. Without a doubt one of the best investments I've made in myself, my artistry and my business. Thank you, Cari. For all that you do for all the artists you so devotedly serve."
