“If there’s a God, and if She has a plan, maybe She put me here and She gave me a pen, said ask for direction, be humble, not proud. Take all of it in, and write some of it down”
Carter Beckworth
Santa Fe based musician, Carter Beckworth, has grown a lot since he started writing music at the age of 12. Becoming a husband and father has added another layer of introspection and depth to his repertoire, which is on full display in his Americana and Folk ballad, “Writing It Down”.
When asked about the song and it’s inspiration, Beckworth adds, “to embrace one’s strengths is to acknowledge one’s limitations.If there is something you do well, do it often and expect nothing in return.”
Carter was born in Houston, TX, and began writing when still in Middle School. He enrolled as a student at the University of Mississippi in Oxford, where he began to play professionally and released his debut album. A few years later, he released another album, featuring the hit single, “Mabel,” which played on over 200 radio stations and was selected to appear in two independent films.
Now based in Santa Fe, NM, by way of Austin, Beckworth has toured throughout the US, including major markets like Los Angeles, Nashville, and Chicago. Known for his poignant, acoustic performances, he has shared the stage with an array of performers including Ryan Bingham, Hayes Carll, Radney Foster, Bob Schneider and Randy Rogers.
“Writing It Down” is available on all major streaming services now. His upcoming album, pocketknife, will be released on October 22nd.
Our Word
Carter Beckworth is a talented songwriter and musician who already has found a spot among music fans, with a signature blend of Rock, Country, Americana and Pop, Carter reaffirms his talent now with the melodic and beautifully performed “Writing It Down”, and just as we said when he released his song “Jillian”, hopefully in years to come his name can be more out there, a hard task for Country loved artists, where a lot of his fanbase stands, but not impossible, when we look back at country music legends who were able to crossover audiences and music fans of all genres, as for example Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson or Kenny Rogers.
