About

about

John Carroll

Raised in South Texas, now living in Central Texas, via Nashville, I have, over the last 30 years played locally, toured regionally, nationally and internationally, and been a session musician on both regional and national levels. I am currently the lead guitarist and musical director for TX Music artist Cory Morrow, who I’ve played with on and off since 2000, with a couple of stints in Nashville mixed in there. I am also currently working on my very own (and very first) album of instrumental music and am excited to share this with the public when it is completed.

Here is a list of artists that I’ve toured with:

Clay Blaker

David Kersh

Chris Cagle

Joe Nichols

Cory Morrow

Whether I’m playing live or in the studio, as a side-man, I’m there to serve others and not myself. If my name is on the album cover or marquee, then it can be about me. But, if I’m working for another artist in the studio or on the live stage, it’s gonna be about them and their music. Ours is an ego-filled industry and it’s necessary to check them at the door in order to do the job required as a session/live musician.
