Daniel Phelps, Recording Engineer

Beginning a career in music can be daunting and challenging.  But if you have the help of talented friends, it can also be great fun!  This honorable mention goes to Daniel Phelps, recording engineer and dear friend to Carrie, because she would have never begun recording without him.  Carrie's first three albums ("Center of Attention", "To the Loves of My Life", and "Trust Me to Stay"), along with two of the songs currently on her playlist ("Bittersweet" and "Five Till Ten") were recorded and mixed with the help of Daniel's remarkable ear and inexplicable patience.  Daniel received a Bachelor's Degree in Music Engineering and Technology from Elizabeth City State University, NC, in 2005, and currently works as an audio engineer for Narrow Minded Productions (his own studio), and as a video editor for WNCT-TV in Greenville, North Carolina.
