CARBON LEAF
LOVE, LOSS, HOPE, REPEAT


Barry Privett: Words & vocals
Carter Gravatt: Guitars, mandolin, loops, vocals
Terry Clark: guitars, vocals
Jordan Medas: bass, vocals
Scott Milstead: Drums & percussion

Carbon Leaf blasted into the national spotlight two years
ago with their major label debut, Indian Summer. But while
they kept busy working as support on major national tours
(Dave Matthews Band, Counting Crows, John Mayer, etc.) and
headlining their own, these Virginia-based self-starters
kept moving forward musically as well as professionally.
That point rings clear throughout Love, Loss, Hope, Repeat,
a collection of new songs whose sound is the richest, whose
grooves are the most infectious, and whose messages run the
deepest of anything they’ve yet More...

    Review about Carbon Leaf

    Chills | Reviewer: Eric
        ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

    This song sends shivers down your spine. I saw Carbon Leaf in Baltimore this past summer and they were amazing!!! I plan to see them in a couple weeks when they come thru to Hagerstown. I surely hope that these guys get more nationwide playtime. They are talented musicians - I went out and bought every album they had so far and cannot wait for further releases.


    Such a great song! | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

    I actually wasn't familiar with this song before I had the opportunity to see them live in Baltimore this summer. Needless to say, it blew me away. Their songs connect to so many people, even if it's not the standard type of music you listen to, there's something you can relate to.


    Inspirational and Comforting | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Let Your Troubles Roll By performed by Carbon Leaf

    I first heard this song after the band was recommended to me by a classmate when I was experiencing a particularly difficult time in college. She was already a devoted Carbon Leaf fan, but she related their music to me when my relationship with my roommate was verbally and mentally abusive. Later that school year, my father passed away and I found so much comfort and relief in listening to their album "Indian Summer." Lyrically and melodically, I find their music beautiful, passionate, unique and endearing (among other descriptors). Thank you for your devotion to your art...it has aided me and I am sure countless others, too!


    CHANGELESS | Reviewer: Courtney!
        ------ About the song Changeless performed by Carbon Leaf

    when i first heard this song i thought it was going to be stupid because it was a graduation song and my school doesnt pick out the best songs. but as i started hearing it more and more i started to cry and now that this year is coming to an end i can barely listen to this song. its to sad for me because everything it says, all the words...they are true and i try not to admitt it but that only makes it harder for me. EVERYONE NEEDS TO LISTEN TO THIS SONG!! <33

    :( its so sad. stay close and hang on to your friends. you never know what you are going to miss until its taken away from you


    Inspiration | Reviewer: Jo
        ------ About the song Paloma performed by Carbon Leaf

    Listening to the words of this poetry are nothing if not inspirational to me; the music lifted me up. I took the leap and got free of a life of abuse...I am chasing my dreams, hoping they erase the troubles in my head. I left my exposed soul behind. Great stuff...! I will continue to spread the word!


    Deep Meaning | Reviewer: Maggie
        ------ About the song Changeless performed by Carbon Leaf

    I never really knew what this song meant to me until my brother told me he was going into the Navy. My brother and I are very close and it would be the first time we were ever more than 2 hours apart. And he and I were at the concert together the first time either of us had ever heard of Carbon Leaf. This song was playing when he told me that he was going to be leaving in May of 2006 for the Navy. This song, to me, represents anyone who has gone away from me. Go if you need to. I will be here, and I will keep your nest changeless.


    Growth and Developmeent | Reviewer: Sabra
        ------ About the song Learn To Fly performed by Carbon Leaf

    I have been following these guys for quite some time. When I was making my way around the country, I stumbled upon them in the hills of West Virginia. They have grown so much in the past few years. I trust we'll be hearing more and more from them as time continues to pass.


    Every word rings true!! | Reviewer: KT
        ------ About the song A Girl And Her Horse performed by Carbon Leaf

    I applaud Carbon Leaf for the insight and courage to write a song so honest as this... how many boyfriends/ husbands have wondered and pondered that bond between a girl and her horse? I'm hoping that sharing this song with them will help them understand that they are not alone and that "somethings are best left between a girl and her horse"!


    Great Memories | Reviewer: E Spencer
        ------ About the song Big Strong Man performed by Carbon Leaf

    My father-in-law used to vamp on the piano and he served in WW1 in the RCN. He was always called on to lead the sing-a-long and this song
    was always called for. I heard him many time years ago. Thanks


    Wow. | Reviewer: April
        ------ About the song Learn To Fly performed by Carbon Leaf

    I was on a random downloading spree and I stumbled across this song. It has to be one of the most touching and inspiring songs I have EVER heard in my life. It's going straight to my iPod. Love it. 5/5 Stars!


    What a great song! | Reviewer: Nighthawk
        ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

    I came across this song by accident while setting up a closing flag retirement ceremony for a local BSA camp outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. I needed several songs so we could do the final US flag retirements. We had 25 flags that needed to be retired. While looking for songs I came across this one. After listening to it I knew this was the one. I found that Carbon Leaf had just performed it in front of several US Veterans’ during a special ceremony in Washington D.C. I was in tears thinking about both of my father-in-laws that served our great country. When we finished the ceremony there wasn’t a dry eye at the campfire. Several Veterans came up later and thanked us for the very memorial ceremony. I decided to purchase Carbon Leafs new album and love it. They really have some great songs.

    perfect song | Reviewer: Cindy
        ------ About the song Let Your Troubles Roll By performed by Carbon Leaf

    This is my favorite Carbon Leaf song. When I first heard it, my family and I were going through a tough year, and it really spoke to us.
    Thanks guys.


    perfect song for imperfect time | Reviewer: russ
        ------ About the song Let Your Troubles Roll By performed by Carbon Leaf

    i first heard this song when carbon leaf performed at virginia tech about a week after the tragic shootings. the lyrics couldn't have been more perfect for the circumstances. in a sea of college students (including my daughter who was a VT freshman at the time) still recovering from the world's worst campus tragedy, no advice was more appropriate than "when all of your tears dry let your troubles roll by". i will never hear that song without thinking back to the pain of that experience. but i'll always remember the kindness and generosity of carbon leaf for playing to those kids, helping them find their way back from sorrow and giving them the performance of their lives. if you believe in karma then good things are coming carbon leaf's way.


    inspired lyrics | Reviewer: russ
        ------ About artist/band Carbon Leaf

    i first heard carbon leaf on the radio with their hit song "life less ordinary". then i saw them at virginia tech with my daughter - a freshman at the university - little more than a week after the tragic shootings. usually i find that i like 2 - maybe 3 - songs of any given group, but as carbon leaf performed song after song i discovered that i really enjoyed every one of them. not only are they musical in a world of 'artists' who sometimes do nothing but bang guitars and scream, but their lyrics are very compelling. so while i was at the VT performance i bought 3 of their CD's. since then i've listened to each one several times and each time i discover something new in the lyrics. carbon leaf's writing touches the heart and soul with intelligent, metaphoric verses. i've become a huge carbon leaf fan; a groupie of sorts. saw them last week in northern virginia and i'm seeing them again in 2 weeks in NC. i'm lucky to live in their home state of VA and i expect i'll see them at least a few more times.

    oh, and these guys have integrity and character, and they're among the most humble and caring artists i can think of. not only did they perform for nearly 2 hours at the virginia tech event, but they donated their entire fee from the night to the VT memorial fund. if their music wasn't already enough to make me a devoted fan, that act of generosity and kindness forever endeared them to me.

    but don't take my word for it. like the next guy, i'm 49 years old. however, my taste in music more closely resembles that of my teenage daughters. but i am a former musician so i appreciate the true quality of this band's work. listen to them. see them. you too will become a fan.


    Reminds me of a sailor | Reviewer: Darlene
        ------ About the song What About Everything? performed by Carbon Leaf

    It reminds me of a sailor in the Navy who just wants to find a place in the world...


    it hits home. | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

    i was very young when my grandfather died, so everything i know about his experiences in world war II is through old black and white photos.
    i got more than teary-eyed when i heard this song. i sobbed. this is a conversation i would have liked to have had with my grandfather.


    I Know The Reason | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song I Know the Reason performed by Carbon Leaf

    One of my favorite Carbon Leaf songs.. describes my friend and I way too well.


    wow | Reviewer: Vevila
        ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

    This song gets me every time
    A couple friends and I performed this at our school's MLKJr. assembly, it seemed like the entire high school was teary-eyed by the end.
    Carbon Leaf's music is great, but the lyrics really speak.
