“Everything You Do represents what I love about worship songs and making music for Jesus,” says Cartee. “It’s the four corners of a life that I try to pursue: community, creativity, worship and service. My hope is that this music inspires all of those things in the listener and equips them to lift up Jesus in everything they do.”

Cartee’s new project was recorded at the renowned Ocean Way Studios on Nashville’s famed Music Row. In the past the studio has hosted such artists as Willie Nelson, Sheryl Crow and George Strait. With Everything You Do, the studio became occupied by a collection of friends, a community of worshippers, all raising their voices to glorify God. “This album was a community project,” Cartee says. “Community music is made for and by a community of people, and in this case, it was the people I live and work with day in and day out.”

As street date approaches, Everything You Do is the focus of multiple marketing promotions. The record will be highlighted as part of LifeWay’s spring GET TO KNOW new artist campaign in 150 LifeWay stores. “This is The Gift of God,” from Everything You Do, is also currently song of the week at WorshipSource.com and has been selected by Worship Leader Magazine for their May Song DISCcovery program which will feature the song to hundreds of worship leaders across the country. Additionally, the project can be pre-ordered on WorshipSource.com now through street date.

Carl Cartee will spend much of his spring and summer leading worship at camps and conferences in Mars Hill, N.C., Summit, N.C., Fanning Springs, Fla., and Summerton, S.C. Cartee is founder of the Inspire Worship Conference, which will take place this year May 13-14 at Fellowship Bible Church in Brentwood, Tenn., where he serves as worship leader. Working with Crossroads Worldwide Summer Camps since its inception, he also plans to join the camp in Shelby, N.C. as its worship leader for the month of July. Later this fall, Cartee will serve as a teacher and worship leader at Christian Musician Summit to be held November 13-14 in Redmond, Wash.

Born in Anchorage, Cartee found his musical niche early on, learning guitar at age 3. He graduated from Gardner-Webb University in North Carolina and began pursuing full-time ministry. After several years leading worship conferences and writing songs, Cartee and his wife moved to Nashville in 2005. Over the next few years, he recorded several albums and is now the worship leader at Fellowship Bible Church in Brentwood, Tenn. Brentwood Benson Music Publishing and Cartee partnered for his March 2009 release Everything You Do. For more information, visit http://www.carlcartee.com/.
