It sure feels great to come to work in our new home. We still have a few finishing touches to complete but I thought it would be a good time to show a few pictures to show our progress.

They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but...

Over the years a lot of people have worked for CareySound so it’s not unusual for one of them to use their time with us as a reference but this newest twist is just down right bizarre.

Twice in recent months, while closing on new installs, we have been surprised to find that we had been bidding against ourselves so to speak. Our competitors, two different local companies no less, were claiming in their bids that the audio had been designed by and was being supplied by CareySound. One can only assume that they thought by invoking our name they had a much better chance in securing the job. While we are flattered that they hold us in such regard we are more than a little alarmed that our name is being invoked by these inferior interlopers without our knowledge or consent. Not only have we never worked with these companies before, we have never even employed anyone working for them. So...

Please insist on the genuine article and look for the SoundMan™ on the label. If you have any doubts please call us at (336) 379-1943.

Not all the fireworks were in the air this Independance Day. While John stayed in Greensboro for the annual fireworks concert CareySound also traveled to Elizabeth City to help them celebrate the holiday as well. There we were treated to the musical fireworks of Mountain Heart. They are definitely not your dad’s bluegrass band. They might should think should about a name change - Mountain HEAT has a nice ring to it.

The Carolina Chocolate Drops were the headline entertainers for the annual Heritage Day at Blandwood Mansion which is the kick off event to the Fun Fourth Festival in celebrated in downtown Greensboro. Making this 4th as even more memorable is that it also celebrates the Greensboro 200th anniversary. The festivities will continue on Thursday night with headliner Black & Blue performing at the Kick-Off Block party and then after a full day of activities in downtown Greensboro will conclude with the Greensboro Concert Band fireworks finally at the Grimsley HS Football Stadium were CareySound will once again provide the audio for the event. We look forward to seeing you all on the Fourth.

CareySound offices will be closed on Friday. We hope you join us for the fireworks concert at Grimsley HS Football Stadium along with the Greensboro Concert Band. We will reopen on Monday the 7th as usual. Have a safe Independence Day.

Our five wonderful years working with the Eastern Music Festival and it’s former visionary leader Tom Phiion have come to an end. After a record involvement in over 90 events, 30 in last years festival alone, they have decided to move on without CareySound this year. With money being tight for everyone I hope their abbreviated lineup and new production providers works out for them and we wish them well.

It was a privilege to have worked with so many world class artists over the years. The following pictures are just a sampling of our fond memories.
