"Gotta Lotta Lonesome" - Carson Peters & Iron Mountain (Official Music Video)

When fiddler Carson Peters appeared as a contestant on NBC’s The Voice in 2021, there were feelings of excitement combined with worry that Peters would be leaving his bluegrass roots for the mainstream country sound. Fortunately that was not the case. Peters’ release, Gotta Lotta Lonesome, on Billy Blue Records, demonstrates Carson and his band Iron Mountain embracing the traditional sound at a deeper level than ever before!

The title track, "Gotta Lotta Lonesome", co-written by Peters and producer Bobby Starnes, takes on a swingy feel, as evidenced by Carson’s fiddle kickoff. Carson and guitarist Ben Marshall provide the vocals on this song, demonstrating the natural blend their voices have with each other. Along with Peters and Marshall, Iron Mountain also consists of Carson’s father, Jamie on rhythm guitar, Ben’s father Eric on bass, Austin Tate on mandolin, and James McDowell on banjo.

Well I've gotta lotta lonesome up in here
It all started on the day you disappeared
I didn't know my eyes could cry so many tears
Well I've gotta lotta lonesome up in here

I didn't see it coming, you left out of the blue
You took off a running when you found somebody new
Well you left me here all alone with a heart broke right in two
And I can't believe you're gone while I'm still here in love with you

Well I've gotta lotta lonesome up in here
It all started on the day you disappeared
I didn't know my eyes could cry so many tears
Well I've gotta lotta lonesome up in here

What's a man to do when his world's been torn apart
Missing you with the blues and one ole broken heart

Well I've gotta lotta lonesome up in here
It all started on the day you disappeared
I didn't know my eyes could cry so many tears
Well I've gotta lotta lonesome up in here
Yeah I've gotta lotta lonesome up in here
