Let's make this birthday one to remember.

72 years old (Born on August 13, 1952)

Happy Birthday, Dave Carter! Another year wiser and still strumming strong—your timeless tunes with Tracy Grammer continue to echo through the folk world. From your poetic storytelling in "Gentle Arms of Eden" to captivating audiences everywhere you went, you've truly become a legend whose melodies never age (even if we all do!).

Here's hoping this birthday brings as much joy as those unforgettable harmonies that earned you both acclaim as 'the new voice of modern folk music.' May your day be filled with laughter, good friends—and perhaps fewer banjo jokes than last year's celebration!

Cheers to many more musical adventures ahead!
