Bobby Carlson found success in Nashville. While signed to Lofton Creek Records, his song <strong>"Paper Plates &amp; Dixie Cups,"</strong> reached #47 on the Music Row charts, on March 3, 2004. After a few years touring, Bobby come home to form the Stones River Band. Bobby Carlson &amp; SR have played every summer at Indian Ranch in Webster MA. In 2009 he played with Sammy Kershaw and in 2010 opened for Charlie Daniels. Bobby&rsquo;s performed to big crowds at the sea shell stage at Hampton Beach NH and was a headline act at Country Woodstock on Labor Day Weekend. During the cooler months Bobby plays regularly at several of New England's hottest country nite spots, like: Midnight Rodeo in Manchester NH, where his originals are so well known that&nbsp; his song, *<strong>"Paper Plates &amp; Dixie Cups," </strong>has been choreographed and made into a country line dance. That in-turn lead to people wanting to purchase the album again.&nbsp; All this buzz lead to on air interviews and actual radio air play and was a big reason why Bobby Carlson was invited to perform a series of showcases during 2010 CMA / Fan Fest in June at various venues around Nashville, which in-turn lead to a great review of the disc by <strong>*Cashbox Magazine.</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Bobby Carlson is an excellent performer. As good as they get. &nbsp;The shows are always upbeat, tight and will make you want to dance or if you prefer clap your hands and stomp your boots.</p> <p>With Bobby Carlson it's all about having a good time.&nbsp; Bobby has experienced sharing the stage with Faith Hill, Leann Rimes, Charlie Daniels, Mark Chestnut, Marty Stuart, Darryl Worley, John Anderson, Tanya Tucker, Bryan White, and Leann Womack.<br /> <br /></p> <p>One day last summer Bobby's manager Jeff Davis of Unicorn One Management of Milford, Mass pitched Bobby's talent to Spotlight Records and after a review of Bobby Carlson career and music, Spotlight Records agreed this man and his music needed to be re-released using today's internet and promotional efforts as only Spotlight Records can.&nbsp; The themes of the songs vary as they should on a CD but regardless of whether it is up-tempo or a tear jerking ballad Bobby handles the vocals with perfection. This is a must-hear.&nbsp; Listen to some of Bobby Carlson's music at http://www.cdbaby.com/bobbycarlson</p>
