I'm glad you dropped by ...
My name is Carroll Brown and I've made my living performing popular and original acoustic music since 1974. For those of you who don't know me, my musical talents have been described as very good and my shows and recordings are lively and entertaining and contains songs and stories of real people and events. I play a good guitar, write a decent song and sing on pitch. My projects are professionally recorded and seldom disappoint the buyer. For those of you who know me, thanks for dropping by, as well. Let me know if you don't find what you need here. I hope to see you again (or get a chance to meet you) soon. Thanks for your support!
Much of my work is performed solo in Irish music pubs and events throughout the American southeast. Many of these events are filled with college kids and some cater to older folks. Musically, myself...and our band "ACE Basin," are based in Charleston, SC. Many shows include what we call "Country and Eastern" which is coastal folk and country music. It is actually just a mixture of regional and popular favorites. I don't play with any electronic side equipment and I don't crack up any guitars in my show, but many listeners go out of the way to come back again. Many bring their parents or their friends when they return and that is a part of what motivates me to continue to do what makes my living.
Supporting my family is the main reason I work as hard as I do. My wife (since 1976) and son and daughter are a great source of strength for me. I grew up in a large loving musical family and I guess I tend to need that family unit support. We live on my ancestral family farm in rural central South Carolina. I'm not home enough to help much on the farm but I would never live anywhere else. My great grandfather homesteaded this land and my own home stands across the field from the home he built and the house I grew up in.
Other information about my performances and traveling (including Ireland) and our recordings, etc. can be found in this website. For now, I'll just say.... I'm glad you found me here and I hope to see you sometime soon.
