Carrie Beason & Big MO

CARRIE BEASON

About Me

Driven by acoustic guitars, cigar box guitar, mandolin, electric bass, harmonica and other instruments, Carrie Beason & Big Mo is a natural organic blending of Blues, Americana, Classic Rock and Modern Mountain. Good people and great musicians creating a unique and memorable sound. Stand by for new music tracks, added soon ! Carrie's album of original songs,'Painfully Happy', is backed by the Skeletons, described by a New York Times entertainment writer as "The best damn bar band in America." Grammy Award winner Joe Terry on the piano, D. Clinton Thomas's sweet electric guitar and and hang on for David Wilson's fiddle and mandolin. "She has a Stevie Nicks voice to compliment her Allison Krause like harmonies, showcasing her talent." (XPress Paper) "Beason writes traditional songs which carry this writer back to the times of Payton Place with a strong shot of Happy Days. On Cinderella, Carrie reaches within, like Jeannie C. Riley and on Manipulatin' Queen, the Rockabilly sound would make Wanda Jackson jealous!"(J Gjaltema, AltCountry) "'Painfully Happy' is a damn good record. Keep it coming!"(Radio Golden Flash)Myspace Layout Stealer
