Jeremy is a New York native who has loved to sing since he was a young boy. His sister, Carolyn, speaks of Jeremy singing to TV commercials as a child and never stopping from there.His early influences were Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway, David Ruffin, Levi Stubbs of the 4 Tops. Later influences were Brian McKnight, Michael Jackson, Howard Hewitt and Pebo Bryson. Currently Jeremy likes John Legend, Elliot Yamin & Justin Timberlake. Over the years Jeremy has focused on live performance, specifically R&B with a variety of musicians. Live performance has always been close to Jeremy’s heart and something he’s always interested in doing.

As a top-line writer and vocalist, Jeremy loves to work with producers and engineers creating music. According to Jeremy, writing the lyrics for a song is "really exciting and you get to express a thought from start to finish, sharing your point of view".Through 2007, Jeremy worked on numreous dance music projects for producers around the world. The vast majority of these projects being released over seas. This work led to his first two Top-40 hits in Holland, "Turn The Lights Off" and "Physical Attraction". The lyrics for "Physical Attraction" were written by Jeremy and recorded in a Manhattan studio.

It wouldn't be until February of 2008 when "Deep At Night" (previously released throughout Europe by Fektive Records) would be released in North America by Nervous Records and become a Billboard Top 10 Hit that Jeremy's success would be realized at home in the United States. In the summer of 2008, the release of “Night Moves” in Holland was received with great enthusiasm by the European Dance Music community. The song opened Dennis Ruyer's Dance Department on Holland's national Dance538 radio on June 11th and became a listener favorite on the playlist.   http://jeremycarr.com/

Creative Commons defines the spectrum of possibilities between full copyright — all rights reserved — and the public domain — no rights reserved. Our licenses help you keep your copyright while inviting certain uses of your work — a “some rights reserved” copyright.

Too often the debate over creative control tends to the extremes. At one pole is a vision of total control — a world in which every last use of a work is regulated and in which “all rights reserved” (and then some) is the norm. At the other end is a vision of anarchy — a world in which creators enjoy a wide range of freedom but are left vulnerable to exploitation. Balance, compromise, and moderation — once the driving forces of a copyright system that valued innovation and protection equally — have become endangered species.

Creative Commons is working to revive them. We use private rights to create public goods: creative works set free for certain uses. Like the free software and open-source movements, our ends are cooperative and community-minded, but our means are voluntary and libertarian. We work to offer creators a best-of-both-worlds way to protect their works while encouraging certain uses of them — to declare “some rights reserved.”
