CareySound helped Greensboro’s own Covacus entertain the thousands of basket ball fans that converged at the Coliseum this last week end for the ACC Tournament as they queued up to enter the venue.

Relay For Life - TV Style

CareySound joined in the activities a couple of weeks ago at Central Davidson High School in Lexington for the Relay For Life walk arranged to honor Tricia Creasey where it was reveled that her and her family had been chosen for ABCs Extreme Makeover Home Editions latest project.

The show must go on - with 40 degree temperatures, 20 mph winds and driving rain courtesy of Hurricane Ida relay organizers decided go ahead with the event an volunteers and participants weathered the poor conditions. About three in the afternoon the ABC production crew showed up and turned the event into a video shoot until dark. It was like being in a movie and we were all extras.

Neither wind nor rain prevented CareySounds Cobra System for working flawlessly for the 24 hours of the event.

CareySound On The Road

ZZ38C81FF8

It was a beautiful weekend for an outdoor concert at the beach as CareySound hit the road for Barefoot Landing in North Myrtle Beach this last weekend for the Annual Taste Of The Coast Festival. The festival a production of Risen Christ Lutheran School and the proceeds go to the school. Area restaurants had booths set up so that you could sample the many different types of cuisine they offer, and there were fun and games for the whole family to enjoy while they spent the day together.

CareySounds Basic Cobra package sets up fast, packs into an incredibly small space and performs better than systems three times its size. We know how to keep prices low during tough economic times without sacrificing quality. Call us today.

Back To The Future

Sternburger Auditorium


It’s been a while since we have been in Sternberger at Guilford College. The picture to the right was taken there about 17 years ago. Last night campus FM radio station WQFS presented a performance by national recording artists Juan Maclean and CareySound was honored to provide production for the event.

Where There's Heat There's Fireworks

IMG_2806

Not all the fireworks were in the air this Independance Day. While John stayed in Greensboro for the annual fireworks concert CareySound also traveled to Elizabeth City to help them celebrate the holiday as well. There we were treated to the musical fireworks of Mountain Heart. They are definitely not your dad’s bluegrass band. They might should think should about a name change - Mountain HEAT has a nice ring to it.

That's Just M'Coul

In case you haven't noticed CareySound is not named after nor is it located in Cary, NC. It's from our proud Irish heritage as part of the Carey clan. And it just wouldn't be St. Patrick's Day for CareySound without participating in Greensboro's largest Saint Patty's Day Party downtown at M'Coul's Public House with our good friend and proprietor Simone. We snapped a few pictures of the event that we thought you might enjoy. Click on an image for a bigger picture.
