Adam and Chis Carroll
“Adam Carroll is like a very young Kris Kristofferson. He writes about things that are older than me.”
– James McMurtry (in Rolling Stone)
“Influences — Adam Carroll. I used to skip my own gigs to go watch him…by far my favorite, somebody whose writing style I emulated in some ways.”
– Hayes Carll (in No Depression)
“Though he’s drawn some lazy comparisons to Townes Van Zandt, he’s actually far more of a Guy Clark type, forgoing fancy metaphors in favor of matter-of-fact vignettes sharper than a Randall knife.”
– Lone Star Music review
