__________________________________________________________
Cord Carpenter started his music career playing solo acoustic shows as a college student in Sequin, TX.

Inspired by artists that span several decades, Cord played for a wide-range of audiences with only his guitar, harmonica and his unique voice. His urge to add more instruments to his ensemble would soon be the start of the band called CORD.

In 2001 Cord found a solid beat keeper in Johnny Villarreal, a fellow student in Sequin. Johnny has played drums ever since he could walk and found the perfect fit to his style in Cord's songwriting. Together they would soon find solid guitarist Pat Roberts in nearby Austin to fill the lead position. After a couple of years of establishing themselves with friend and bassist Josh Recio, they decided to part ways to begin a new chapter in Cord. After taking no time at all in looking for the right fit to complete the rhythm section, they found seasoned musician and bassist, Todd Meador. With a new line-up and new dedication to their craft, Cord has been re-charged and has taken giant steps in building their sound and their fan-base in 2005. A hot night in July found CORD releasing their new CD "Who You Know" to a crowd of over 400 at Stubbs in Austin Texas. Selling over 250 copies in that one night proved to Cord that they were here to stay in the Austin music scene, and were now on the radar of many labels and industry professionals.

With songs that are to the point and choruses you can't get out of your head, the music of CORD has been spreading throughout Texas and is soon to invade the rest of the world. The band grows with each show, justified by the growing fan-base, but all those who have heard the music know that this is only the beginning...

Cord feels their sound ranges from Lifehouse to Switchfoot to Pete Yorn to U2...but we'd prefer that you make your own decision. Enjoy Cord...
