Johnny Carroll

Known as the Man With the Golden Trumpet to his fans, Irish trumpeter Johnny Carroll devoted decades to his craft, becoming widely recognized as one of his country's best-known musicians. During the '90s he emerged as a substantial solo performer after years of band work. By the end of the '90s he had released a handful of albums such as From the Heart, and the early 2000's saw him continue his prolific streak, releasing the celebrated Songs I Love to Play album. ~ Jason Birchmeier
