David Carr Jr., Saxophonist (7:00 am)

This artist has worked a great deal with programs which benefit children. Most recently he wrote the song "Sounds of Innosense" which has become the official theme song of Our Garden of Angels Inc (which I blogged about in a prior post). Through his music he has given a voice to thousands of parents who are so often isolated by their grief and shock in the aftermath of losing a child.

Story Behind The Artist

Saxophonist, DAVID CARR, JR., has pursued his passion as an artist since the age of 12. His inspiration came inherently from his father, also a saxophonist. Through his influence, along with his undying patience and hard work, David’s desire to pursue his goals with perseverance and dedication was born. All these attributes have played an integral part in his success today.

As a self-taught and prolific player by ear, DAVID writes and produces his soulful melodies in his own studio. His refreshing new blend of contemporary jazz, combined with an R&B/Funk flair, has earned him a reputation and sound which separates him from many other saxophonists of today. Coupled with his provocative stage presence and innovative sounds, his smooth, yet rhythmic sound, has been compared with such greats as Grover Washington, Jr. and David Sanborn.

David performs as a solo artist, as well as, with his band. His performances are largely comprised from corporate & charity events, weddings and/or private parties, JAZZ concerts and music festivals—both in and outside of the US. Combining his many years of experience, along with his raw talent, profoundly reinforces that David Carr Jr. is a true commodity.

As a young boy, DAVID’s commitment to a “drug free” life has earned him the credibility, respect and recognition as a true “artist” throughout his career. In consideration of these attributes, David’s participation in outreach programs benefitting the children and young adults of today is not only an inspiration for many, but also a rewarding experience as well. The many local agencies that Davd has worked with throughout the years:

• The Collin County Children’s Advocacy Center
• MDA,
• MEALS ON WHEELS,
• THE HEART ASSOCIATION,
• THE DOWN SYNDROME GUILD OF DALLAS
• THE HOLT INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN’S SERVICES

Most recently, DAVID’s newest community involvement has been with Child Advocate, Mark Klaas (http://www.klaaskids.org/) and “Our Garden of Angels”, a support group whose mission is to prevent violent abuse to men, women and children, as well as, comfort and guide those left behind after losing a loved one from the violent act of murder.
