For trans folksinger Creekbed Carter Hogan (he/they), everything good is made from the rotten stump of something else. With a solid grasp of traditional country and folk, an irreverent sense of humor, and a willingness to tackle deeply personal themes, they have quickly established themselves as one of the most interesting names in the emerging outlaw country scene.

Creekbed Carter’s shows weave stories of a religious and closeted childhood around songs that build on Appalachian folk picking traditions and pay homage to folk icons like Karen Dalton, John Prine, and Hazel Dickens. His timely fascination with history – labor songs and Catholic folklore in particular – has brought him a growing audience as he re-arranges rare union tunes and deep dive into medieval saints. In addition to being a musician, Carter is also a fiction writer and educator.
