About
Carl Wockner is an Australian-born singer, songwriter, guitarist, and live-looping performer whose career bridges soulful songwriting, multi-instrumental skill, and spontaneous live creativity. Raised in Queensland, he began playing violin, piano, and guitar at a young age and went on to release his debut album before relocating with his family to Nashville to pursue his music career more fully.
Known for his dynamic one-man performances, Carl uses live looping technology to build rich, layered soundscapes onstage, creating the effect of a full band with just his voice, guitar, and looping gear. His original music — blending pop, soul, folk, and R&B influences — has charted internationally, and he has been recognized with awards including Musician of the Year and top honors at major acoustic music competitions. During his journey he has also appeared on national television and in syndicated music showcases.
As a live performer, Carl’s shows feel energetic, personal, and unpredictable, with familiar songs, original material, and inventive reinterpretations shaped in the moment. His engaging stage presence invites audiences into each creative choice, making every performance feel fresh.
At the heart of Carl Wockner’s work is a commitment to honesty and connection — weaving story and sound into performances that resonate and linger long after the final loop fades.
