Carter & Carter

Performing: CLUB COUNTRY  Thursday, 5 Nov, 7.00pm MAIN STAGE  Friday, 6 Nov, 7.00pm

Since their introduction into Country Music in 2000 Carter & Carter continue to make Australian music history and throughout their reasonably short yet highly successful career so far, it is not unusual for Carter & Carter to do something that stands them ‘ahead of the rest’.  

 

After winning double TSA Song Salute Awards in Tamworth in January, and Merelyn winning both the Victorian and National Female Vocalist of the Year at the Victorian & National Country Music Awards held in Whittlesea in February, and following two national number one radio hits on the Top 30 Country Music Charts in 2007 (Runaway and The Best Things in Life Are Free), April 2008 sees Carter & Carter release Slow Dancing at Midnight from their current album Leap Before You Look.  A music Clip for Slow Dancing at Midnight directed by Duncan Toombs will hit CMC in May.

 

And together with the release of the much anticipated single, comes the announcement that Carter & Carter’s first DVD simply titled Carter & Carter – Unchained will be launched mid year.

 

Directed by Duncan Toombs Carter & Carter – Unchained is more than your average music DVD.  It will contain all their music clips so far, plus a preview which will be released officially later in the year.  It will contain live footage of Carter & Carter winning their Golden Guitar, together with excerpts from their live album launches in Tamworth.  It will contain candid interviews with producers Herman Kovac and Adrian Hannan, not to mention interviews with Carter & Carter family, friends and fans alike.

 

Exploring what it is like to be an Independent artist in Australian Country Music, Carter & Carter – Unchained is based around a live Lounge Room Concert held at David and Merelyn’s home in Kinglake, Victoria.   With a tour around their small farm and exploring some of the things close to their hearts, Carter & Carter – Unchained is sure to be great entertainment as well as a candid look into the lives of two people who write songs about life itself.

And it’s these two people and these songs that continue to win the hearts of fans all around the world and continue to help Carter & Carter create Australian musical history.
