About Leroy Carr
Hometown
Nashville, TN, United States
Born
March 27, 1905
Genre
Blues
With Scrapper Blackwell accompanying him on guitar, pianist Leroy Carr released a series of suave "uptown" blues records in the late '20s and early '30s that introduced many listeners to the genre. Carr and Blackwell's recordings straddled the fence separating blues and jazz in much the same way as did the recordings of their contemporary, guitarist Lonnie Johnson.
