Behind The Music

Carl Lord

Carl embarked on his musical voyage of discovery at seven years of age, guided by a great uncle who was a classically trained, concert pianist. Soon after, Carl began taking piano lessons and singing in the youth choir at his local church. Throughout his adolescent and high school years, Carl took part in various talent competitions and piano recitals. As his love for music continued to grow, Carl began playing piano, organ, and keyboards in various local and regional R&B, Pop, Rock, Country, and Gospel bands during and after his graduation from college.

Carl has performed at the prestigious Kentucky Derby Winner's Party and shared the stage with such well-known recording artists as Steve Wariner, Reba McEntire, Louise Mandrel, and John Anderson, Carl's diverse composing and playing talents can be found on numerous albums, commercials, soundtracks, and television shows. Carl's music can also be heard on various radio and streaming outlets, including Sirius XM, Pandora, and NPR. With a background in college athletics, Carl is also an assistant track & cross-country coach at both the high school and university level.
