Description
Oklahoma native, J.R. Carroll grew up playing piano and singing in his small-town church choir. It wasn’t long after picking up the acoustic guitar that Carroll began writing and recording his own music, eventually leading to the release of his debut EP “Long Story Short.” He is currently touring as the keyboardist in Zach Bryan’s backing band, while continuing to play his own shows and record music of his own too.
J.R. visited us just outside of Nashville in December 2022 to record his OurVinyl Session. With nothing but an acoustic guitar and an old Wurlitzer, he delivered intimate performances of “Pray,” “Make You Weep,” “Other Than That,” and fan-favorite “Bandit” in an old log house close to the river in Madison, Tennessee. This session was directed by long-time OurVinyl collaborator Jarad Clement.
J.R. Carroll gained his gospel pipes on Sunday mornings, leading the small-town Okie church choir by piano and voice. After finding a group of friends to sing along with, Carroll adopted the acoustic guitar and wrote what became his debut EP, “Long Story Short.” The set of songs resonated with fans of Tyler Childers, Jason Isbell, John Moreland, and Carroll’s close friend Zach Bryan.
Since the EP’s release, Carroll has been playing shows of all sizes. He currently accompanies Zach Bryan as Bryan’s touring keyboardist. When he isn’t on tour with Bryan, Carroll is writing at home in Tulsa, Oklahoma or playing his own shows around the United States.
The forthcoming music from Carroll reflects an indie-rock influence, while holding dear the tender, honest, and heart-felt lyricism that fans expect from Carroll. The newer work draws influence from artists like Ryan Adams, Kings of Leon, and the Avett Brothers.
