Will Carpenter

Will Carpenter's debut release entitled Divine Intervention is a collaboration of inspirational and jazz music. He decided on this title because of the inspiration and ideas that the Lord bestowed upon him in the making of this project. The compositions on this CD are created with a combination of traditional and piccolo bass guitars. Will often uses these instruments to construct a musical blend that is delightful to the ear.

Will began playing the bass guitar in the sixth grade and has added additional instruments along the way to culminate the making of this project. He began to manage his own band in the 9th grade and has been a bandleader ever since. His "Rendezvous Band" played private events, restaurants and clubs in the Houston area for 15 years. He employed many musicians from various genres to form a sound that satisfied a multitude of listeners.

Will also ventured into major concert promotions within the southwest region. This enabled him to explore other artists and to gain a better understanding of how business is conducted both on and off the road. He was also able to meet and coordinated the stage riders for Kenny G, Bob James, Kirk Whalum and Rodney Franklin. The wealth of experience acquired by being around artists of this calibur is likely to surface when you get to see Will perform live in concert.
