Something familiar in an unfamiliar way.
My moods and music reflect what it is to be human...

Let's start by saying that this artist absolutely deserves your attention...
He is one of a kind and one of the most talented musician's of our time... his lyrics and melodies mesh together seamlessly... breaking through the mindless noise that is today's music scene...
*****************************************************************************************************************************************
David T. Carter's music owes it's complex simplicity
to the finely crafted country/pop tunes of the fifties
and sixties. There is a significant level of
sophistication mined from jazz artistry of the same
eras. The passionate urgency found in most gypsy and
klezmer music has followed a convoluted pathway into
David's reportoire and become an important texture in
the fabric of the sound. His "classic" music is
infused with everything from Oriental sounds to Latin
beats and all of these elements, combined, are the
reason David T. Carter succeeds at reaching audiences
from two to eighty-two, in venues that are generally
genre/niche oriented. The music is moody, honest,
romantic, quirky, fun and carries a compassionate
message about the human condition.
"There are any number of organizations in our world
that, either by design or by accident, tend to exclude
or encourage exclusivity". "I believe the reason this
music crosses age, gender, political and lifestyle
boundaries is that it's all about inclusion!". "In my
humble opinion, it doesn't matter what '..ism's' you
subscribe to, you're still part of a village".
Thank you for visiting my page!
"Call me old fashioned but songwriting is a profound language and an age old trade. People will remember the 60's from a Bob Dylan song rather than a political resolution. People will relate to true sorrow and lonesomeness from a Hank Williams song. People will relate to love and joy through Stevie Wonder, etc."
******************************************************************************************
"My moods reflect what it is to be human which is everything from happiness to sadness and all things in between, I do believe however that there is a thread of humour in most everything we do as humans, that's why Shakespeare has lasted as long as he has."

Feel free to contact me from time to time if this music or my performance you have seen has made you do so, thanks for stopping by and I always look forward to seeing people at my shows, live, the only true place to experience the ''language of song''.
With much respect, David T. Carter
