#33 Natalie Carr

Episode #33 with one and only Natalie Carr. Currently based out of Charlotte, NC the R&B and pop artist began playing guitar and keyboard at a young age and officially started putting out music in 2019, but her appreciation for music came well before that. Carr’s early memories came from her father’s adoration of The Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney, and she began writing her own songs at the age of 13 while growing up in Stamford, Connecticut.  After earning a B.A. in Public Policy from Duke University, she worked as a bartender at the Motorco Music Hall in Durham where she would daydream about performing at the venue one day. Even right upon arriving at Duke, she was mentally devising a path for her music.  She moved to Charlotte in 2018 on the recommendation of mix engineer Chris West, who thought it would be the next natural step for the aspiring singer-songwriter. Releasing her first two songs in 2019, Carr displayed a rare refinement in emotive pop songwriting on the track “Talk About You,” stacking a range of melodies and vocal effects on a spacey track produced by NC State alum J-Mac and CAMEone. On “Bad Side,” she showcases more of her modern R&B stylings on a darker hip-hop tempoed beat.  Feel free to follow Natalie on her socials  ▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nataliecarrm...
