Carousol officially began their journey in November 2005. 3 members of a former band came together to start a new 3-piece project. Woody Detwiler, Jeff Baker and Mike Cotton combine their own styles to create music that has no commitment to staying in the proverbial box. "Combining funk, soul, jazz and rock make a pretty cool combination," says Mike Cotton, keyboardist. "We sometimes stumble into other styles accidentally while were writing, too. I guess you could say we're an 'equal opportunity' band." Carousol makes their home in Central Florida, but is making plans to travel throughout their state, then the region, then the country and eventually the world. "We have every intention of taking this project to the massess," says lead vocalist and guitarist Woody Detwiler. No strangers to the art, all three performers have an extensive musical background. Although they like to play their main instruments, they each have been classically trained in other instruments. There is no doubt that Carousol is a soulful band made up of genuine artists. They are quickly earning their space in the central Florida music scene and building a fan base throughout the entire southeastern United States.
