| About Carrie Hamby & Singing Biscuit |
|
While training to be a concert pianist, Carrie moved to Florida at age 14 and instantly began alarming her parents with a newfound love of bluegrass music. Since then she has played and sung in many bands of various shapes & sizes, currently residing in Tallahassee - someday to be known as "The Birthplace of Singing Biscuit." The band is always in flux but usually includes: Angie Prather, Mike Snelling, Dennis Hardin, Frank Graham and David Leporati.
Performing solo and with the band, Carrie has gained a following at coffee houses, clubs, nature centers, house concerts, legion halls, bars, theaters, and - oh yes - folk music festivals throughout the US but primarily in Florida. A typical set will combine several of her original country-flavored tunes with some eclectic covers ranging from the Stanley Brothers to Iris DeMent. She has twice placed in the Top 10 in the annual Will McLean new song contest.
Two full-length recordings so far: "Stand Up Eight" (2003) and "The Cosmic Reel" (2006), both available through the singingbiscuit.com site and CDBaby.
