Carter Twins

Growing Up In Akron Ohio Twins Josh And Zach Carter Were Surrounded By Music From The Time They Were Born. Their Mother Worked In Country Radio And Encouraged Their Interest — Zach Stole Time At Her Piano While She Taught Josh “Stairway To Heaven” On The Guitar. The Family Moved To Hilton Head S.C. When The Brothers Were 15 Where They Landed Their First Live Gig At Coligny Plaza. They Realized Their True Passion Was Performing In Front Of A Live Audience And Continued To Craft Their Musicianship While Juggling A Busy High School Schedule And Playing Hundreds Of Live Gigs.
The Young Duo’s Air-Tight Harmonies Reflect A Wide Range Of Musical Influences Including Everyone From Rascal Flatts Brooks & Dunn And Keith Urban To John Mayer The Everly Brothers And Gavin DeGraw.
