1) Carson is a French rapper. The album Falconia was released in 2019.
2) Carson is a Swiss-based psych-rock band from Lucerne. First formed in Auckland, New Zealand, by front-man Kieran Mortimer-Jones in late 2009, after a few line up changes Carson were ready to perform. Playing all over New Zealand the then four piece quickly built a reputation as a groovy, heavy, melodic and energized outfit. 2011 Carson recorded a 7 track E.P with hit tracks Dues and Conversational being played on National New Zealand radio stations. But then it was time for Kieran to move to Switzerland and a new band had to be formed. Keeping the name Carson (taken from the classic western The Good the Bad and the Ugly) Jan Kurmann and Elina Willener joined the band and within 4 months started blasting the local Swiss scene. In December 2012, Carson released a 2nd self titled, 6 track E.P.
3) Carson was an Australian blues-rock band active in the 70s. Carson's career was relatively short - almost exactly three years - but in that time the "Kings of Boogie" built a reputation as a powerful live act, and they were one of the most popular Australian blues bands of the early 70s. Together with Bulldog, Chain, The Aztecs, Company Caine and Pirana, Carson was part of the stable of acts handled by Consolidated Rock, the Melbourne agency founded by young entrepreneur Michael Gudinski. Carson was also an important stepping stone for several of its members, including singer Broderick Smith, and the group's original keyboard player John Capek.
The original 4-piece lineup formed in in January 1970. Guitarist "Sleepy" Greg Lawrie (ex-The Creatures, Chocolate) was already considered one of the best slide players in the country; John Capek was ex-Leo De Castro and Friends; Ian "Fingers" Ferguson's career had started way back in 1961 with Shepparton rockers Tony & The Shantels, and completing the lineup was drummer Tony Lunt.
The group was originally called The Carson County Band, but they had dropped the "...County Band" part of the name by the end of 1970 because they were being mistakenly tagged as country rock group, and only their first single came out under that name. They were strongly influenced by Chicago blues, and by the emerging "boogie" style being popularised by bands like Canned Heat and, later, ZZ Top.(According to Who's Who of Australian Rock, Paul Lever and Tony Enery were also members during this year, but details of their role in the band are not known at this stage.)
Their first single was On The Highway / Resting Place, issued on the Rebel label around May 1970; at about the same time Lawrie and Capek got together with Matt Taylor, Tim Piper and Yuk Harrison from Genesis, plus Trevor Courtney (ex-Chants R&B, Cam-Pact) in a one-off recording project called The Meating. The single they recorded together, Bad Luck Feeling / Back Home was released on Rebel in August 1970.
John Capek left Carson in late 1970 or early 1971, moving on to King Harvest, Flite and Hannagan. To replace him, Carson recruited singer and harp player Broderick Smith, formerly of Adderly Smith Blues Band and Sundown, and second guitarist Ian "Willy" Winter (ex-Brothers Grimm, Five Just Men, Pigface).
The new lineup recorded a single for the Havoc label, Travelling South / Moonshine, which was issued in August 1971. Meanwhile, Ian Ferguson left in July to join Island, and he was replaced by ex-Chain bassist Barry "Big Goose" Sullivan. Sullivan left after about three months to join Flite so he was replaced by Garry Clarke (ex-King Harvest). In November they added a new keyboard player, Mal Logan (ex-Healing Force), and they also augmented the band even further for concerts, adding a three-piece horn section.
Ian Winter left in March 1972 when he was invited to join Daddy Cool as second guitarist, but after Daddy Cool split in August he returned to Carson. Brod Smith also branched out during the year -- Carson's manager, Rhett Walker (who was also the program manager for Melbourne radio station 3AK) decided that Smith could be promoted as a solo artist (along similar lines to Rod Stewart's parallel solo career with his work with The Faces). Broderick cut two singles for the Image label, and all four sides of which were written and produced by Brian Cadd.
Sometime during this period, Broderick was also called in to sing on the soundtrack to Albie Falzon's surfing movie Morning Of The Earth. Oddly enough, the track he appeared on, First Things First, was actually by Tamam Shud. Singer Lindsay Bjerre was having voice problems when they cut the song, so the original vocal was done by lead guitarist Tim Gaze. However, producer G. Wayne Thomas was evidently not satisfied with the result so he erased Tim's vocal, and he brought in Broderick Smith to lay down a new track. Although this has previously been reported as having been done without the Shud's knowledge or permission, recent information from Brod himself contradicts this.
This is at odds with Lindsay Bjerre's claim that Tamam Shud didn't find out about the substitution until the night of the film's premiere, later in the year, and they were understandably furious a bout it. (Bjerre acknowledged, however, that Brod's vocal was a good effort in its own right, despite the circumstances.)
By September 1972 Carson had signed with EMI's Harvest imprint. Their first single for the label, Boogie, Parts I & II gave them their first taste of chart success in September, going to #30 nationally, and it is now widely regarded as one of the classics Australian rock singles of that period.
They followed up in November with their very successful debut album, Blown, produced by Rod Coe (former bass player with Freshwater and Country Radio). Its memorable cover was another fine design by Melbourne artist Ian McCausland. Blown fared even better than the single, reaching #14 nationally in December. (Meanwhile, Havoc cashed in on Carson's new prominence by reissuing Travelling Home the same month.)
Late in the year Carson expanded yet again, when sax player Mal Capewell (ex-Dr Kandy's Third Eye, Company Caine, Dada, Graham Bond's Holy Magick) joined the touring lineup. In January they appeared at the second Sunbury Festival over the Australia Day long weekend; their set was recorded and the song Friday Night Groove was included on Mushroom's inaugural release, the ambitious triple-album The Great Australian Rock Festival (April 1973). Unfortunately, Sunbury was to be Carson's last major performance: Winter and Logan left just afterwards and in February it was announced that Carson had split up. Their final record was On The Air, the full recording of their Sunbury set, which was released in April 1973.
Various band members moved on to successful careers in other bands. Brod Smith of course became the lead singer of The Dingoes, and went on to a successful solo career; he still performs regularly in an acoustic duo. Greg Lawrie played on Chain's Two Of A Kind LP, as well as Matt Taylor's solo LPs Straight As A Die and Magic, and featured prominently on Matt's 1973 hit single I Remember When I Was Young. Mal Logan formed Altamira before rejoining Smith in The Dingoes, and he featured on their famous debut LP. In later years he worked with Renee Geyer.John Capek was perhaps the most successful of all. He moved to the US around 1973 and established himself as a songwriter. Since that time he has had songs recorded by some of the world's biggest names, including Rod Stewart, Chicago, Toto, Manhattan Transfer, Don Johnson, Olivia Newton- John, Dan Hill, Marc Jordan, LRB, John Farnham, Patty Austin and Diana Ross. He has also provided music for the Hollywood films Cocktail and Youngblood, as well as the Australian features Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Heaven Tonight and What The Moon Saw. Milesago

Carson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So I have no intentions
To get this right when you
Just want, just want attention
We'll fuss and fight
And that's the way it goes, and that's the way it goes
And that's the way it goes, and that's the way it goes
But in the night,
When you're down and falling
I know that I'll
Be the one your callin but
You'll be fine,
You'll be just as fine,
As you were the last time
When you crossed the line and
I'll forget o yes I'll forget
Cause these little things in life
They keep me moving forward
So I have no intentions,
If you're gonna leave then just leave
Cause I'll be better off oh,
I'll be better off
Because in the night,
When you're down and fallin
I know that I'll
Be the one your callin but
You'll be fine,
You'll be just as fine
As you were the last time
When you crossed the line and
I'll forget o yes I'll forget
Cause these little things in life
They keep me moving forward

And that's the way it goes, and that's the way it goes
And that's the way it goes, and that's the way it goes
But in the night,

The lyrics to Carson's song "Moving Forward" touch on the complex nature of relationships and the emotions that come along with them. The opening lines suggest a lack of effort towards making things work in the relationship, as the singer has "no intentions to get this right" when the other person is seeking attention. This seems to lead to numerous arguments and disagreements, which "is the way it goes." However, when the other person is "down and falling," the singer is there to support them and provide comfort. Even though the wrongs committed in the relationship are acknowledged, the singer is willing to forget them and move on, as "these little things in life" keep them moving forward.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the idea of moving forward and being fine despite the challenges faced in the relationship. The singer acknowledges that the other person will be fine as well, but recognizes the importance of being there for them during difficult times. Finally, the last few lines of the song suggest that the singer is better off without the other person if they choose to leave.
Overall, "Moving Forward" conveys a sense of acceptance and resilience in the face of adversity in relationships. It reminds us that even though we might face challenges and difficult times, we can still move forward and be better for it.

exactly... just because someone does something wrong or bad, by standards of others, laws, or other stuff, does NOT mean they are NOT going to change.
you know what makes people not change? treating them like they won't, treating them like thats all they are, that the actions they do, DEFINE THEM as a person PERMANENTLY.
I say if someone can REGRET their actions, they can change for the better...
otherwise, we ALL are guilty and are defined by our actions no matter when how or what... you've stolen something as a kid? your a thief....
you punched someone before? your violent and will never change...
you killed someone out of self defense, or WERE a murderer? well, you still are, and must be treated as such.
there are people today, who've gotten out of prison, and lead their own lives just fine, as civil, upstanding people, obviously I can't fucking point them out because that requires me to ACTUALLY know them, but the fact you can find records of people who've been to prison, and are still NOT in prison for anything else for years, means people can change/become better.
but nah, gotta cancel/ruin someones life, because we got nothing better to do but hate them right? can't let them fix their lives or help them right?
Carson is doing the ONE thing, that people are telling him he can't do... be a better person... by helping others...
and yah know? . . . I'm proud of him... he may not be able to REDEEM what he's done maybe, maybe, but that doesn't mean he can't be and do better... he can...and it seems hes trying...
PancakeWaffleBoii
he went to therapy, resolved it in private with the victims, and bettered himself as a person, and is now using his platform to do good. he doesn’t owe you an apology. he’s done all he needs to do
Sneako
@travis :) BRO 19 and 17 isn't bad its two years ONLY is 15 and 17 bad or maybe 19 and 21?
Drolleries
@travis :) Romeo and Juliet laws let people date close to their age. He dated someone in his age range and suddenly there's victims?? It wasn't an abuse of power or anything. It wasn't him SA-ing a 10 year old. But that's what people like you treat it like and it's fucking sick.
BlizyOn30fps
@travis :) he had 2k subs tf you mean “take advantage of his platform”
BlizyOn30fps
@travis :) for crying out loud it was a 1-2 year difference and it was legal by Romeo and Juliet law
Just a Piano
@travis :) I love how this dude instantly is flamed by the whole comment section because he said something completely braindead
Freddy45
He apologized to the people in a private manor, which is great! There is no need for a public apology as long as he has apologized to the people in private it’s fine. Plus he is 19 and she was 17. Is there something I’m missinf
dat mofo yung bappers aka dat bapis aka faceheadzz
Nah people just want a reason to hate
Ridlay
I think he’s handled this situation surprisingly well, it genuinely seems like he wants to be better. I wish the best for your Carson, just because you go down the wrong path doesn’t mean that you can’t change lanes.
Pomada Gaming
…wrong path? Tf you mean that he’s in some dark side lmao
