Inspired by the vibrating and dynamic power of sounds, Carrier is interested in exploring what he calls the 'emotional atmosphere' in music, and in celebrating ephemeral beauty of the passing moment. Whether in a meditative mood or a playful one, Carrier is always unpredictable. In March 2001, Carrier's CD Compassion was awarded the Juno Award for Best Contemporary Jazz Album
