Carey Ott Newsletter


"Anyone" placed in ABC Familys' "Make It or Break It".

"Anyone" - the lead track from Carey Ott's soon to be released CD, "Human Heart," is proving to be a made-to-measure track for television. "Anyone" will be featured on the season finale of "Make It Or Break It" airing on Tuesday, August 31st on ABC Family at 9/8c.

"Make it or Break It" focuses on the lives of teen gymnasts who strive to make it to the Olympic Games. Placed over a lilting finger-style acoustic guitar, "Anyone" is the perfect song to punctuate a drama of life among these angst filled teens.

Whether it's ABC's vampire-driven summer series "The Gates" or "Make it or Break It", "Anyone" has proven integral to specific themes of these prime-time-TV episodes.

On the heels of the success of "Anyone", ABC's "The Gates" again called upon Ott's composition featuring his deep and dark "War Within" for their August 15th episode "Dog Eat Dog," accentuating the terror of that festering cloister. Lots of cool activity all within a month and a half!!

Please take a few minutes to download "Anyone" and "War Within." Time limited!

Cheers!

About Carey

Born and raised in Chicago, Carey Ott has been making important inroads on the Indie scene since moving to Nashville from his hometown Chicago. Carey began his foray into the music world when he picked up his first guitar at the age of seven. The mid-90s saw Carey as front man for Chicago-based Torben Floor. By 1999, the band had called it quits and Carey began focusing on a solo career. Since then, Carey has released numerous tracks and in 2006 Carey released his critically acclaimed "Lucid Dream" CD. Fans of ABC television series "Grey's Anatomy" may be familiar with the "Lucid Dream" track "Am I Just One" featured on the 2006 episode "Tell Me Sweet Little Lies" And consequently two episodes thereafter.

Proclaimed by One Time One columnist Joel Armato as possessing "a quality that no amount of marketing could embellish or hide." Carey's music and presence has been compared to likes of Jeff Buckley, Elvis Costello, and even Ray Davies. Stuart Renfro, freelance Chicago scribe, writes, "Carey is a man who works in the shops of melody but isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. Carey Ott writes cinematic music. It's almost like he's shooting little movies on a super 8 camera each time he writes a song... But, perhaps most importantly, when you listen to Carey Ott deliver a song, you can feel the singer sitting right next to you, telling you the latest about some dark little adventure or a blue hole that opened up in a gray sky. No movie director gets that close."

After, the success of "Lucid Dream" Carey's tenure at Dualtone came to an end early 2008. He proceeded to produce, write and co-write close to one hundred songs. Several of those songs are slated for a mid January release of his "Human Heart" CD which will feature up to 20 tunes. A major effort from a major artist!

What People Are Saying

"With his shimmering guitars, gossamer melodies and voice to haunt you to the soul's core, Cary Ott brings to life the proverb that still waters run deep. His is the kind of talent that bridges generations, smashes genre walls and can make you effortlessly groove and endlessly dream at the same time. He's a kid in a sandbox, a man making grand designs--and the kind of aritst whose gifts are seen rarely in any given generation. Long may he run." - Louis Carlozo, The Chicago Tribune

"Carey Ott's musical style is a refreshing kaleidoscope of melody and emotion. His music actually leads the listener effortlessly into the story of the song and it unfolds without their even realizing it. Although Carey's guitar is simply the vehicle in which he draws a picture, we are very proud to be a small part of it all." - Cara Hogan, Epiphone / Gibson Musical Instruments

"Carey Ott has crafted a collection of songs that will prove to be timeless. Whatever mood you're in Carey Ott has that certain something that makes you embrace what is going on musically." - Brian Ball, Ernie Ball, Inc.

"Carey Ott's sweet vignettes ooze an epic-indieness, like a Rufus Wainwright or Teddy Thompson, just without the family drama, and with vocals reminiscent of a Ron Sexsmith combined with the upbeat indie rock of Brendon Benson. Expect to be winding down your window, singing along to the radio sometime soon." - Uncut Magazine / UK

"A driving Oasis appeal with a penchant for Beatles melodic ethic." - American Songwriter Magazine
