Hello everyone! Hope all is well.
FINALLY! I have good news! The single from the new Project, “I'm Home”, is both the title cut and the single to be released in a few weeks just in time for families, who are traveling home for the Holidays.
 

To those who pre-ordered, you'll be receiving an exclusive pre-release download. For others, you can hear the track on here and pre-order to get your copy. The full project is scheduled for release at the beginning of next year, and tho it was delayed, I believe it is…

As time passes, we are getting more gigs and hope to see you there.

One of the most recent is being booked at the Labor day Armuchee BG festival. It's like going back home, as we performance Friday & Saturday. (Show Times TBD)

I am hoping to have the recording done by then, and we will be able to set up a merch table to buy all your CT&TR wares. The recording is almost complete, and the single, I'm Home" will be released hopefully within a the month of July. Pray for us as we continue in the Lord's service…

:( I am sad. Today was supposed to be the day for release of “I'm Home”.
Unfortunately, scheduling has gotten us behind and it may be end of summer before it is available. 
i am so sorry for this. I am still excited about it getting out to you all, and it WILL happen but later than expected.

Hello friends and neighbors!
    Session 2 for the “I'm Home” project is complete! We had some good times, and played some great music. I am really looking forward to the final outcome, especially after I heard the mixdown of the first single, the title cut “I'm Home”! 

It is really exciting to hear songs that you have written come together and sound the way you thought they would. Thank you all for your support and don't forget you can pre-order the CD+Download in our music store.

Hello friends and neighbors!

Exciting, times, as we went into the studio and began recording for the “I'm Home” project. This 14 song CD will feature 13 original songs by Carl Towns and his writing partners. 
Joining Carl on this project are award winning singers and musicians: Kenny(Guitar, vocals) and Amanda(vocals) Smith (courtesy of Farm Boy Records), Alan Bibey (mandolin, courtesy of Billy Blue records) and Co-Producer/Engineer Dale Perry(Banjo, vocals), who graciously welcomed us into Red Roof Recording…

I am excited to announce that the new year is here, and along with the new year comes the new outlook.

I will be going into the studio on January 10th to begin recording songs for the new project: Unconditional Reality.
This CD will include 14 songs, mostly original, of gospel and positive grass. I am really looking forward to recording with Dale Perry in his studio, Red Roof Recording. 

For the coming year, we are booking heavily and look forward to seeing all of you out in the Grass!

It's been a hard year for a lot of people.

I've had so many musical set-backs that I can't count them. But I know the Lord is with me, and it will all work out.

As the new year closes, I am adamant to continue the positive Bluegrass mission. With that said, I will be making a change to the structure of Upward Road and will be looking for musicians and singers to join me on the road at various venues. If you are a musician and would like an opportunity to pick some fun music, let me know.

Meanwhile, I wish…
