Hello everyone, welcome to ..my space.. which when you think about it should really be called ..our space.. ..cause there is two of us. So introducing ourselves .. we are Merelyn and David, and for our music life we are known as Carter & Carter. The official bio blurb is below, but we just wanted to say hi from Kinglake in Melbourne, Victoria, AUSTRALIA. A beautiful part of the world!We hope you enjoy our...my space.. and please leave a comment and your ..my space.. link as a friend below. Merelyn and David------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------What an amazing start for Carter & Carter as they leap into the new year with a new single, a new album and an incredibly successful album launch held at the Toyota Country Theatre at the TREC in Tamworth in January. ‘Leap Before You Look’ was officially launched to a full house and incredibly enthusiastic crowd and the new single Run Away is currently gaining very strong airplay all around the country. The first two singles Play that Song and Ride both made it to ..3 on the Country Music Top 30 Chart and with a Golden Guitar Nomination for each of these songs, a TIARA Award and a People’s Choice Career Recognition Award even before ‘Leap Before You Look’ was launched. It is a great start to a stunning new album from Carter & Carter, and it is already being described as their best album yet! Merelyn and David both produced ‘Leap Before You Look’, together with Adrian Hannan who also co-produced the successful ‘Acoustic Gospel’ album. Both David and Merelyn have put their hand to producing other artists albums and clips during 2006, including Donna Boyd and Debra Byrnes. An exciting new direction for them both, which utilises the many skills and talents they have developed. In January 2006 Carter & Carter were inducted into the Hands of Fame in Tamworth – a great honour for such new artists to the Australian Country Music Industry. Mid 2006 saw a new and fresh Carter & Carter emerging. Now seasoned song-writers and having taken the time to develop their new songs, the result is inspiring and a re-invention, yet still the essential Carter & Carter. It all began in October 2000 when Carter & Carter launched their debut album 'Dance Away The Night' and they have been creating history ever since. Their second album 'Every Minute' continued their incredible success, winning multiple awards and producing six hit singles, including four national ..1's. 2004 saw the release of ‘Acoustic Gospel’ and album reflecting their roots and marrying country and gospel in a way only Carter & Carter could do. The self-penned God Didn’t Make Mistakes was a national radio hit and touched people’s hearts all around the nation. Major awards include a 2003 Golden Guitar for 'Candlelight and Kisses', 2004 APRA Most Performed Country Work Award for 'Lead Me Home', the CMAA Industry Achiever Award for Independent Entertainer of the Year for three consecutive years, not to mention their 7 Australian Independent Country Music Awards, multiple TSA Songwriting, ACMLA People’s Choice and Victorian Country Music Awards and also accolades across other genres. To date they have six national ..1 country music hits, on both the Country Tracks Top 30 chart and Music Network charts as well as five other Top 10 hits, certainly an impressive chart history. They have also charted in other genres of music both here in Australia and overseas. Passionate songwriters as well as performers they have written many of their hits including 'Lead Me Home', 'Candlelight and Kisses', 'Dance Away The Night', 'One of Those Days' and 'God Didn’t Make Mistakes' to name a few. Having done all of this as independent, self managed artists, it is not surprising that Carter & Carter are now considered by fans and peers alike to be amongst the history making artists in Australian Country Music. Their music is fresh, it's inspiring, and it will continue to create history for many years to come.Carter & Carter can be contacted at Crestway Music PO Box 174, Ringwood East Vic 3135 03 9739 4740 0416 075 638 [email protected] www.carter-carter.comGet Your Own! | View Slideshow
