Jon Carp
Stuart, FL | Established. Jan 01, 2018
Bio
Born and raised in Florida, Jon Carp began writing songs while studying Anthropology at the University of West Florida. By the time he graduated in 2014, Carp's songwriting had matured significantly, and after a brief stint as a Florida State park ranger, Carp went to F.I.R.S.T Institute in Orlando, FL to study recording arts and show production. Carp began recording his first album while studying at F.I.R.S.T., which will be released this fall through Symphonic Distribution. Akin to artists like Fleet Foxes, Iron And Wine, and Andrew Bird, Carp's music draws deeply from the American music tradition. The lyrics, no doubt influenced by Carp's university background, read like poems and often tell vivid stories that draw from the natural world. The songs of Jon Carp can take the listener to the highest highs and the lowest lows, but always with grace and beauty that defines the human experience.
