Carrie Morrison, a singer/songwriter based in Brevard, is known for her heartfelt lyrics and diverse melodic compositions that blend folk, rock, and Celtic genres. Known for her warm, expressive voice and intricate piano arrangements, Carrie has become a beloved figure in the WNC music scene. Her songs often explore themes of love, resilience, and the beauty of nature. With several albums and EPs to her name, Carrie recently released her second full-length album, Balladeer, produced by Chris Rosser, and EP The Crosswalk, recorded at the famous Abbey Road Studios in London. In addition to performing as a singer/songwriter/pianist, she collaborates with many other artists and is a keyboardist and vocalist in The Andrew Thelston Band, a rock/funk regional favorite.
