Carl…ness.
Recently awarded “MUSICIAN OF THE YEAR 20/21” for the QLD Prestige awards - Carl Wockner is a straight-up SAVAGE! (the good kind).
Latest single “Fool’s Gold” is a delicate balance of organic-acoustic POP mixed with singer-songwriter lyricism and honesty, which is exactly what you get when you’re first exposed to Carl Wockner, especially in a live setting.
Determined to pave his own path in modern music - Wockner uses multi-instrumentalism and dynamic production to take listeners on a journey through multiple genres and sonic excitement, all while telling a story.
“Recent singles of 2020 END OF ME, PAINT THE AIR, STEREO, CMB have been a collaboration with pop producer Ben Flanders. We added specific ingredients of Pop production with REAL acoustic guitar, hits, taps - vocal trills and voicing. These were all incorporated INTO the beat to give a nice earthy presence, and we even added Kazoo (on Better) just because.. I really feel like we just straight up need more kazoo in our lives!”
Carl Wockner was named the first and ONLY Australian artist to ever win Top Honors at the International Acoustic Music Award’s 2015 (USA), along with top of the AAA category for the release of his album Crayon Days with producer Michael Flanders in Nashville TN. Wockner has skipped up the charts with his first two single releases receiving high rotation to national radio in both Australia and USA which landed the title track into the International Billboard Charts. The same album has received a 2016 IMA (Independent Music Awards) Finalist nomination for Best Adult Contemporary Album. It was following this recent success that Wockner relocated his family to Nashville TN, USA as a strategic move for his evolving career.
Sept 2019, Carl was featured for an entire episode of “Backstage Marquee” a syndicate show aired across the USA featuring original artists set to be ‘the next big thing.’
Sept 2018 Wockner performed LIVE on National USA Television. The show HLN on the CNN Network for the segment “The Weekend Express,” featured Carl’s original songwriting and performance as a showcase taste of Nashville / Music City.
His rare “Live Looping” style solo performance matched only with his signature vocals and unique acoustic guitar work renders Carl in a league of his own. The live shows have been recognized throughout Australia and USA with multiple headliner performances at festivals and touring, and Wockner is now rumoured as one of the busiest musicians in Nashville, TN - aka “Music City.”
Since landing in Nashville, Wockner has released two EP’s including a Christmas release with the favoured “Santa Selfie.” Currently his latest single “Better” is noted as the best studio representation of his signature live performance style.
There’s something about Carl Wockner’s music that simply exudes peace. The peace you feel when you’re humming along to a nostalgic track, or the peace you feel when you just know everything’s going to be ok. However you connect with Carl’s music, you would agree this he is definitely onto something.
Carl’s first EP, the self-produced, recorded, mixed (all in his lounge room) Acoustic…ness, was released in 2011 to an overwhelmingly positive response. Single “Pictures” received airplay on Hot 91 FM and ZINC FM, the latter of whose DJ’s referred to him as “the man with the big hair and Golden Tonsils.” Carl was also named a finalist in three categories at the 2012 and 2013 MusicOZ awards: Acoustic Singer/Songwriter, Blues and Roots, and Pop.

I really hope everyone watching this understands how difficult doing this is and how much practice, talent and ability it takes to pull this sort of shit off. Much love & respect Carlos

[@BekkerGuitar]

Carl, been following you for about a year now, love your performances! You live and breath music 🙌 Best regards from a colleague in music, Floris Bekker @bekkerguitar (Netherlands), cheers!

Great performance I love it! I've had this looper for a short time.... But I have been playing a lot with the boss RC 30. For now I'm learning with Headrush🤣 in this video you used the sync mode?

[@l.a.punzalanrosario5017]

Very nice performance bro 👌 been watching your vids everyday and see if I can put some of that magic you do on my looping too 😍😍😍 btw, what was that saxophone-like thing you're using? It sounds awesome 🤘🤘🤘

[@carlwockner]

Thanks mate! and Welcome! believe it or not just a kazoo. I try and play it like a sax:)

[@rodykin9681]

This is awesome!!!! I want to sk you about the "snare" in the Maton? please tell me what's thta? hugs from Spain!!!

[@carlwockner]

Hey mate, haha - its actually just a small piece of wood, velcro'd to my guitar in a nice spot to sound cool. Simple but works well combined with the beatbox and string hit, sounds kinda like a snare! Ive tried it with a few different guitars though, depends on how good their pickups are as to whether it registers as a good sound or not:)

[@rodykin9681]

@@carlwockner wow! thats really good! i have the same Maton mimi Diesel but with the AP5 PRO :( do you you think could work?... im starting to learn looping, i love your works!!! thank you so much for all!!

[@rodykin9681]

the bad thing is that my Maton has AP5 PRO :(

[@carlwockner]

@@rodykin9681 Oh that's no problem - just turn the mic volume to off! Then you got the same pickup as I do! I just specifically don't use the mic so I removed it.

@@carlwockner you’re killing me man! I bought the boss rc300 partly because of your vids. But I didn’t know about THIS pedal! I love the rc300 but I’m feeling a headrush coming on! Ha!

[@carlwockner]

@@trevoreaston43 haha! The RC300 is still the best option for most people. I ONLY moved to the headrush for its output options. Which for me were important on some larger stages. Not that the rc300 couldn’t handle it fine tho. It was time for a change for me, also since I’ve had the rc300 for about 6 years haha

[@octasiegra236]

whats on ur mouth bruh? thats awesome can u tell us?

The kazoo??

One for main and one for the loop mic. Different settings🤙🏼
