The French-Canadian formation SAXUET was born two years after Karolyn's father passed away, in ****. This terrible event made her go further in her quest for Jazz, and she chose the songs for the repertoire, keeping in mind her dad's memory (Song for my Father) and also one lost love while she was living in Mexico City.

Karolyn and Catherine had already played in duo many times together, in bars, restaurants and corporate/private events, so the idea of a girly band was in the air.

The name SAXUET came from the mix of the words SAXOPHONE and DUET. With this new promising formation, a new feminine jazz perspective was born.

The CD's
They first came out with a first album entitled "Silky Jazz" (Jazz en Soie), back in ****, where her and Catherine put hours of hard work together. Later, Christine joined the group and added a highly precise view and interpretation of Jazz. It is at this moment that they recorded their second album : "Sax & Port Wine" (Sax & Porto) in ****.

Few months after the release of their second album which sold out in Quebec, Karolyn's mom also passed away. On the evening of the burial, SAXUET was professionally playing in the biggest concert hall of Quebec, because they had a booking as the first part of the famous American blues band : Roomful of Blues.

That night, Saxuet played wonderfully, inspired by a crowd of thousands of people, amazed and touched. When asked how she could play few hours only after her mother's burial, Karolyn said : "...because the show must go on".
