| One of the reasons that Carey Blackwell is on the brink of worldwide success as a musician and songwriter is his deft blend of rock, pop and country crossover songs, from his up-tempo"Betsy" , to the heart-tugging ballad "Letting Go". Carey loves pop and rock music, and has found a way to combine that music to his good old-fashioned country roots in songs like "Lonely Musician" , and his finger-pickin', foot-stompin' soon to be a classic, "Already Gone". Carey has the unique ability to craft songs that effortlessly crossover, with hooks that grab the listener and won't let go. The world that Carey sees with his eyes and heart, is one that fans recognize and relate to. Carey has that uncanny ability to put into words, what many of us think and feel, and in a way that is fresh and original. One of the most emotional songs on Carey's latest CD is "Underneath the Northern Sky" which talks about the love between his father and mother, and the life they led together. Carey is also an elite guitarist and musician...playing, arranging and producing his debut CD. He has attracted the notice of musicians everywhere, who cram clubs to hear him play. His bluesy, country/rock influenced sound, and deep lyrics, have made new fans for Carey and his music. As one country music expert said, "Nashville is jammed with pickers, singers and musicians ... but Carey has that one essential ingredient, he is a killer songwriter ... and there are never enough of those!" |
