Bio
Breaded and battered in the southern spices of Alabama, LeAlan Carter grew up around the sounds of his granddad’s pedal steel guitar and his Dad’s country and classic rock cassettes. At 15 he and several of the other kids in the youth group picked up various instruments to start a praise band and LeAlan chose guitar. That started a journey of 23 years playing guitar in churches and various other bands around the Birmingham area.
For most of his adult life LeAlan suffered from extreme hearing loss and required hearing aids and lip reading to be able to get by in most conversations. In 2022 LeAlan found out his hearing loss was due to a hereditary bone disease and underwent several surgical procedures that restored his hearing. In that restoration, LeAlan discovered a new passion for music in writing and singing Americana, Country, Blues, and Soul and formed The LeAlan Carter band.
“It was life changing. It really helped me find my voice,” LeAlan says. “I’d played guitar, but I hadn’t been confident in my singing until I could hear myself and control my tone.”
