Since leaving the group in 2003, she has lived in West Jordan, Utah, with her eight children. Jessop is the author of "Escape," the first-person account of life inside an ultra-fundamentalist American religious sect, and one woman's flight to freedom with her children. - Tattered Cover Bookstore

The Carolyn Wonderland Group -- Come Together Written by Carolyn Wonderland and Ruthie Foster, and performed by The Carolyn Wonderland Group at the Texas Heritage Music Foundation/Schreiner University Coffeehouse Series at Schreiner U's Cailloux Student Center, 7 March 2007, in celebration of Women's History Month. http://www.carolynwonderland.com/ http://www.ruthiefoster.com/ Here is Carolyn's Press Bio: Carolyn Wonderland has the goods. A triple threat with her diverse songwriting, soulful vocals, and guitar goddess status - all featured on over twenty CDs, six of which are her releases - she has a pedigree in this business that's hard to match. A bit of a renegade, she likes to incorporate elements of Blues, Country, Swing, Zydeco, Surf, Gospel, Soul, and some nights, maybe even a Cumbia into the musical mix. Recent years have seen her stretching out musically working some expert whistling and scat singing into her shows. In addition to her trusty guitar, "Patty," Carolyn has been regularly playing her trumpet, and even occasionally the accordion, mandolin, or keys...she is threatening to take up nose flute if someone doesn't stop her... Wonderland's songs have been featured on NBC's "Homicide," Fox's "Time of Your Life," & Houston NORML even made a video PSA set to Carolyn's "Annie's Scarlet Letter." She has toured with acts like Buddy Guy and Johnny Winter, sat-in with String Cheese Incident, Robert Earl Keen, and Los Lobos, and even sang the "National Anthem" at Sturgis Bike Week 2003 -- her 10th anniversary playing Sturgis -- before Robbie Kneivel's record-breaking jump over one hundred Harleys. Recently, she was a panelist at the University of Texas LBJ Library's "Instruments of Freedom" Forum with Kinky Friedman, Marcia Ball, Jerry Jeff Walker and others. She's been lucky enough to jam with mentors and friends like Bob Dylan, Eddy Shaver and Ray Benson. She's co-written songs with Cindy Cashdollar, Candye Kane, Sarah Brown and Guy Forsyth. How lucky can one girl get? Well, with a lot of hard work, just this lucky. In her words, "I still get to play most every night, so the adventure continues. Every musical interlude is a new page, another chance to jump into the Ether." Originally from Houston, a city where she has won awards in The Houston Press for everything from Best Guitarist, Vocalist, Songwriter, Blues, to Release of the Year and Musician of the Year -- virtually sweeping the awards for 5 years from the time she was a teenager. Now residing in Austin, Ms. Wonderland says, "I moved to the land of free guitar lessons!" In addition to leading her band, Carolyn is also in a few other notable groups. She's the primary singer on the Jerry Lightfoot's Band of Wonder "Texistentialism" CD with Jerry and Vince Welnick (Grateful Dead, Tubes.) She's a founding member of the Loose Affiliation of Saints and Sinners (with Papa Mali, Eldridge Goins, Guy Forsyth, and others), with several of her songs being featured on their "Sessions from the Hotel San Jose Rm. 50" CD. Carolyn is also the guitarist in the all-girl, southern rock band Sis DeVille, and a founding member of the Austin Volunteer Orchestra. When she's not playing music or driving around the country, she volunteers for the non-profit charity, Instruments for Orphans, serving on the board of directors. Frequently, you can also catch her doing Gospel Brunch at Maria's Taco X-Press with the Imperial Golden Crown Harmonizers on Sundays, raising money for local charities. Her first love is her band, and with good reason. Years of touring are evident in both the maturity of the songs and the tightness of the grooves on 2003's "Bloodless Revolution." Not one to rest on her laurels, Carolyn is back in the studio working with Ray Benson on lucky CD number 7. You can preview some of the new songs at one of the many live shows on her perpetual tour. THE BAND OF UNUSUAL SUSPECTS • Scott Daniels - guitar, vocals, mandolin • Cole El Saleh - keyboards • Eldridge Goins - drums • Bobby Perkins - bass The event is put on monthly by Dr. Kathleen Hudson, executive director of the Texas Heritage Music Foundation of Kerrville, Texas, and is hosted by student Prairie Flower. In addition to The Carolyn Wonderland Group, other performers on March 7th included Melissa Weatherly, Emily Lively & Greg Wall, and Sol Patch. Check out the Texas Heritage Music Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the great variety of Texas music, and encouraging education and scholarship. In addition to the Coffeehouse Series, the foundation puts on an annual Texas Living History Day, celebrates the birthday of the Father of Country Music, Jimmie Rodgers, and provides a scholarship for a promising student musician to attend college. http://www.texasheritagemusic.org/

My personal favourite of all the Motorcity recordings, and a song that means everything to me, and into which I poured my heart and soul writing it. Carolyn was only thirteen years old when she signed to Motown, releasing three wonderful singles, "My Smile Is Just A Frown Turned Upside Down", "Forget About Me", and "When Someone's Good To You", all written and produced by Smokey Robionson. But some of the unreleased tracks were amazing, like "Until You Came Along", and "Keep Stepping And Never Look Back". Then her three Philadelphia International releases are worth a fortune, and following thatr she joined Hodges James Smith and Crawford, before signing to Mercury, and then she became the voice on Bohannon's "Lets Start The Dance", one of the all time disco anthems. Because she was so young at Motown, therefore she was the youngest of all the Motorcity artists, being 39 when she recorded this song. She was feisty and had a flaming temper, but I adored her, and still do. Yes indeed she was the voice of Bohannon's legendary dance anthem "Lets Start The Dance", but she never made a better record in my opinion than this here song. It means everything to me. And the video, shot at the time in 1989, in United Sound Studios in Detroit, captures her cheeky personality to a tee.
