BIOGRAPHY
Jean-marie “JC” Carroll has not missed a Members Show since 1977, his songs Sound of the Suburbs, Solitary Confinement and Offshore Banking Business are part of the Great British Songbook and can transport people back to their youth. They have lost none of their vibrancy urgency and
remain relevant today.
He is also an award winning Film composer and 40 years of Punk, Pop, Panto, film and folk have left him with a lot of stories, a great repertoire and a story to tell about songwriting, sticking it to the man and flying the flag for Anglocentric Culture. In the last 10 years he has performed all over the World from Kiev to Los Angeles for Auckland to Aberdeen, .As well as great songs his shows are also very funny, as he traces back his music education through his parents record collection through the early seventies to his discovery of music hall in the pubs of the Edgeware Road, he illustrates the direct link between Folk music of England and its unruly anarchic explosion into Punk in the late seventies.
For people who think that his music is all about anger and aggression JC illustrates why it is also poignant, sad and funny, His Songs have been recorded by Beggars Banquet Stiff Records Virgin Records Island Arista and Cadiz Music and his new Material continues to amaze as he grows as an Artist.”
