Love And War

Since 2002, Barton Carroll has toured and recorded extensively with Crooked Fingers, playing guitar, steel guitar, and upright bass. Carroll has also toured, playing various instruments with Azure Ray, Dolorean, and Micah P. Hinson. On Love & War, Carroll creates characters that search for light in a stark landscape, souls caught in the murky area between what appears to be opposing human extremes. Friends of Barton know about his near obsession with war and the effect it has on the civilian population. This collection of songs is a snapshot of Carroll's ongoing effort to find meaning in moral ambiguity and violence.
