Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Closer to Carter was originally formed in Memphis, TN around 2000, and gathered a large fan base there before recently moving down to Atlanta, where they aquired Jason Matthews (bass).
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Live shows are frequent. Closer to Carter just recently performed on the Miller Lite stage at Music Midtown, and has also opened for Chris Pierson, AJ Croce, and members of Styx and Boston. In addition to their national acts, CTC frequently performs around Buckhead and other parts of Atlanta.
