WARWICK, R.I. (WPRI) — A judge has ruled in favor of Vanessa Carlton in a dispute between the famous singer and her neighbors.

According to court documents, the “A Thousand Miles” singer and her husband, musician John McCauley, purchased a home in Warwick back in 2021.

The couple renovated the home’s carriage house, turning it into a recording studio.

Carlton and McCauley were reportedly aware of “light industrial” noise coming from their neighbors when they bought the home, but the sound wasn’t a problem until this summer.

According to court documents, Carlton believes the problems started after she expressed concerns during a Warwick Planning Board meeting over her neighbors’ plans to build industrial storage units.

Artak Avagyan, Lee Beausoleil, JOGO Corporation and North American Crane & Rigging LLC are all named as defendants in the case.

Carlton and McCauley claimed the noise from the defendants became intolerable in July 2024, according to court documents.
