Carl Solomon & Project Crow and Friends
Carl Solomon & Project Crow http://carlsolomonmusic.com
There has always been music and stories in his head. Carl would sit as a child around a record player listening to Aaron Copelands Appalachian Spring,and Billy the Kidd. That music brought thoughts of his Grandfather,Charles who traveled through Appalachia as a tinker/peddler in a horse draw wagon. Carl heard melodies in those stories.
His daily ramblings with his pen and guitar on most mornings create the characters and stories that he turns into song. He paints with strings instead of brushes, creating images that come to life. His use of language, recollections and humor reflects the diverse facets of the human experience which, when quilted together, form a collection of songs you wont soon forget. He has traveled a path that has taken him from carnival barker to counselor. Now a full time songwriter/musician. He has been called " A Weaver of New Americana Folk Tales". Carl has his own unique voice, Carls influences are songwriters/storytellers: Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, Leonard Cohen, Bruce Springsteen, and John Prine.
