Biography

Singer-songwriter Cormac McCarthy grew up in the small milling town of Lempster in New Hampshire, a depressed and depressing environment that has evidently fuelled his somber lyrics and blue-collar sense of dignity. After studying English in college and living in California, McCarthy returned to New England and started to establish himself as a performer along the Massachusetts/New Hampshire coast. His first CD, Troubled Sleep, represents almost fourteen years of cumulative singing and musical development. ~ Leon Jackson, All Music Guide

Wikipedia: Cormac McCarthy (musician)

Cormac McCarthy is an American folk singer/songwriter. He was born in Ohio but moved to rural New Hampshire at age ten. He was inspired to play music when his sister, visiting home from college, brought records by Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, and Eric Anderson, and he traded his clarinet for a guitar. He was college roommates with Bill Morrissey, who encouraged him to perform his music in public, and co-wrote the song "Marigold Hall" with Morrissey. He currently lives in southern Maine.
