Carson Colvin is the kind of person whose life seems to have a steady soundtrack playing in the background. Whether he’s discovering a new artist, replaying an old favorite, or letting an album run front to back, Carson approaches music with real curiosity and appreciation. Carson started listening to music at a young age due to curiosity, and he has never looked back. His older siblings used to blast music, making him listen at a young age whether he wanted to or not. Carson’s older sister in particular, used to blast music by Taylor Swift, turning her into one of his favorite artists. He listens closely, picking up on lyrics, melodies, and moods.
For Carson, music is both an escape and a connection. It helps him focus when he needs clarity, relax when things feel overwhelming, and feel understood when words fall short. He’s the type to recommend songs to friends because he truly believes the right track can change someone’s day. Genres don’t box him in. He enjoys exploring everything from laid-back, reflective sounds to energetic, upbeat tracks that make it impossible to sit still. His favorite albums of all time include My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy by Kanye West, Is This It by The Strokes, Blonde by Frank Ocean, Faces by Mac Miller, and 1989 by Taylor Swift.
What stands out most about Carson’s love for music is how personal it is. Certain songs hold memories, certain artists represent phases of life, and certain lyrics stick with him long after the music fades. The best memories he has are listening to music with his friends and family. To Carson Colvin, music isn’t background noise—it’s a meaningful part of who he is and how he experiences the world.
