Trained in voice and violin, Tracy Grammer was playing clubs and cultivating an interest in studio production when she heard Dave Carter perform in February 1996: "Here were stories that could stand alone as poetry, sung with compassion, intelligence, and a hint of Texas twang. Dave's entire presentation felt like home to me. I knew instantly that I was in the presence of greatness; I knew I had received my calling in life."

Her bond with Dave Carter was a life long personal and musical journey which ended abruptly with his early passing. Flowers of Avalon (Signature Records - Jan. 2006), continues her exploration of his work. The album, which will become fused to your cd player, has been garnering critical recognition as a masterpiece. Tracy contributes as co-producer as well as vocalist and ulti-instrumentalist. Mary Chapin Carpenter who appears on three cuts on the album writes: "Tracy's continuing quest to make sure that the world remember Dave Carter marks a new beginning of artistry for her. We are lucky that she is so brave, generous and gifted."

She will appear with multi-instrumentalist, Jim Henry.
