Award-winning Texas guitar slinger, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Carolyn Wonderland releases her Alligator debut, TEMPTING FATE. The album, her 11th, was produced by famed master roots musician Dave Alvin, and features Wonderland's signature, blistering six-string and lap steel playing, her intense vocals and her original songs melding blues, rock and Americana.

Carolyn Wonderland spent the last three years as lead guitarist in blues legend John Mayall’s Blues Breakers, and has now joined the Alligator Records family as the first female guitar hero in the label’s storied 50-year history.
