  • …a whirlwind of Roots music forms, touching on Bluegrass, Country, swinging Jazz, Contemporary Folk and Celtic music ... with a consistently masterful grace (and) flawless harmonies.

    Mike Breen, City Beat

  • Wild Carrot made art that lifted us out of our seats. How could music so beautifully transcendent be so wonderfully fun at the same time? Without a doubt, it was the best sound in this theatre since our re-opening.

    Tina Salamone, Burlington Capitol Theater

  • By the end of the evening, your audience will have experienced an excellent performance artistically and will have come to know Pam, Spencer and their group in the process. Both are very enjoyable experiences.

    Mike Morris, The Midland Theatre

  • Tasteful, creative playing, lovely melodies, and beautiful singing voices are the hallmarks of this group. As good a straight-ahead folk group as you’ll hear.

    International Folk Alliance

  • My ears were so pleased when I heard Wild Carrot's version of "What Have You Done To Lift Somebody Up." They are a tight band with a great sound and a lot of soul. Thank you for recording my song.

    Paul Thorn, Songwriter

  • Thank you for your wonderful performance. [Folks] have commented over and over how much they enjoyed your music!

    Janice Young, Charleston, SC

  • Your performance was simply delightful and everyone enjoyed it

    Janine Kelly-Flathman, Activity Director
