 Carey grew up listening to "Rock a Billy Sounds" of His Dad singing songs like: "Johnny Cash-I Walk the Line", 
"Hank Williams-I Saw The Light","Elvis", 
"Kitty Wells-Honky Tonk Angels" He watched His Dad sing songs at Church
'n' and then afterwards He would sing together with Him at Home.
 
 In 1977, Carey began gigging wk-ends at: Hotels, House Parties & Wedding Halls; covering 50's, Punk, 
British, Country & Rock 'n' Blues Artists. 
After Ten years, He Acquired Some Live performance skills, etc. which Landed Three Big Breaks. 
The First break was a great experience into a new level of gig; where He opened for an Obscure Texan Band / Barrymores, Ottawa, 
{Who is a Cross between Stevie Ray Vaughn & CCR & Who just got off 
Tour with The Fabuous Thunderbirds} 
"Omar and The Howlers." 
 After Dropping out of Highschool, He moved to Toronto, to pursue a Music Career equipped with an Aria/Electric Guitar & 8-track stereo for an ampliflier. 
While in Toronto He frequented Live Band Clubs & called newspaper " Drama / Music adds. 
With no substantial leads & minimum wage jobs, He moved back home; discouraged. 
The Second, was a Break Out of Denial. 
He had an Alcohol Addiction and had dabbled and drifted away from His roots, into secularism & other philosophies that left His Heart empty & hard. 
After Wrestling with Depression, Anxiety; He finally listened to His Mother; Who prayed, He'd meet People Who could Mentor Positive Changes in His Life.
 
 He Decided to physically lighten The Load & Sold His Truck & Gear and Called Alcoholics Annonymous. 
He Aggressively Attended many Meetings ... { 90 meetings in 90 Days / then weekly for approx 6 years } 
during which time, He was able to Get Back on to His Feet and completed A Highschool Diploma in Alternative School with 5 english courses. Through A Teacher's encouragement, He wrote some Poetry which He sent out to Several University Contests.
With His guitar, new direction, a suitcase and a Few of His own Songs; He hiked-a-ride West to Kingston. 
 
 The "Third Awesomely Big Break" happened in a Little Country Chapel one Spring Night, May 1990. 
While singin' Hymns to Jesus with five Christian Church Folk.
He had sang Hymns before; but these people knew who they were Singin' To and seemed trustworthy and genuine. 
With nothin' to lose He continued to hangout and 
a half hour or so later, Wham !
 He Found Himself; Surrounded with an Incredible Peace.
This was where He found out that, 
"The Lord is Real"! 
This was where He first met "Jesus".
The Invisible, profound Power of Jesus.
 From Carey's first CD "A Beggar Without His Bride - then - "More of You and Less of Me - most recent release - Free To Fly" is an expression of His personal journey with the Lord through song and how His personal style's evolving.
 Although life's has many twists and turns, 
He knows The Lord's steady, unchanging power has overridden the anguish of addiction and He has brought purpose and destiny into his life.

*" Hi Carey, 
Glad to see You are pursuing your career; since in this time and era you are most likey to reach people through your music. 
I know, I have seen one of your concerts, where people couldn't move very well at the front and moved to back of the room so they could sway and dance more freely. 
That was amazing to Me since some of the people of all ages, were older. They wanted encores but it had to come to an end; 
so You see, You can stir up a crowd. 
So continue to do what 
The Lord has empowered You to do, 
Work with all wonderful instrumental gifts and knowledge to compose music.
Praise The Lord with a New Song. "
