A.P. Carter

Alvin Pleasant Delaney Carter (December 15, 1891 – November 7, 1960) was an American musician and a founding member of The Carter Family, one of the most notable acts in the history of country music. While A.P.'s mother was pregnant with him she was struck by lightning, which gave A.P. a tremble in his right hand, but that didn't stop him from learning the fiddle and guitar when he was young. A.P., Sara, and Maybelle Carter started the Carter Family with Maybelle's Husband & A.P.'s brother, Ezra as manager in 1927, they played up until Sara and A.P.'s divorce in 1936, but reunited in 1956. more »
