These projects have seen her play various festivals and tour across Canada numerous times, sharing the stage with some of Canada's best independent acts. Caroline is currently working on a new project with long-time band mate and partner, Adam Basterfield, Spaceport Union.

Her band, Spaceport Union, won Song of the Year for 'Fueled by Consequence' in 2013. Crimson Star was the western BC regional winner of the Mazda Music contest and the band listed as 'one to watch'. As part of Toronto band, aitimaa, her song 'Hey Gemini' was a Canadian Musician Magazine Talent Search winner.
