The CarLeans blend their diverse musical backgrounds to create a captivating sound that has garnered much attention from New England to Florida to Texas. Their vast repertoire includes folk, cajun, latin, and Americana . . . narrative, humorous, raw and powerful.

“Singer-songwriters Jim Carpenter and Sarah MacLean write authentic, moving songs that can lift you up, make you cry your heart out, fill you with joy, or deepen your understanding of the world as they poetically illuminate the human experience.” — Soundwaves Magazine June 2016

Eddie Seville has been collecting grins, winks & nods in theatres, road houses and folk gatherings around the continental US, Europe and Canada for years.

Drawing from folk, roots and country blues, he’s written songs with an ironic slang and a raconteur’s charm with music released on Island / Atlantic and Universal Records, and airings on ABC, NBC, CBS and HBO.

Eddie Seville is “inspired and vibrant with a freshness few can boast” – Lonestar Pine
