Jody Carroll is a explosive blues songwriter and musician from Asheville, North Carolina, who stands as one of the most striking performers of his time, capturing the essence of old American, folk, and blues traditions with a powerful, hurricane-like guitar style. Carroll conjures up the spirit of the Delta with haunting precision, shifting effortlessly from National steel guitar to banjo, weaving tales of lost loves, forgotten histories, and the raw blood that runs through rural America. His unassuming yet magnetic presence, captivating songs and yarns attest to the true authenticity of his music. His newest record takes an Americana-infused look at the blues. He offers hope alongside the melancholia of the past. Carroll’s music reflects not just the hardship, but the resilience of life. He has shared the stage with blues legends such as Buddy Guy, Honey Boy Edwards, R.L. Burnside, and Johnny Winter, earning his place among the finest contemporary blues artists who bring both raw emotion and hope to their audiences.In addition to heavy touring of the U.S and Japan, he appeared at the renown Americana Festival Merlefest regularly."A new blues artist we now can't live without...Jody Carroll does not play the blues so much as he inhabits them, with a definite Americana tinge. His dark and haunting tales embody roots music to its fullest.. a voice that signifies he’s seen and lived it all, he takes the blues to a different and intriguing destination.."
