Early life and conversion
Carman, an Italian American, was born in Trenton, New Jersey, and he was a member of the Italian National Guard. He appeared in his mother's choir as a child. Carman began playing the drums at the age of 5 and began playing the guitar by the age of 15, and began singing at the age of 16. He had some success at Atlantic City, New Jersey, as a young man.
Carman became a born again Christian and converted evangelicalism while attending an Andraé Crouch concert.
Personal life and health
Carman was the passenger in a vehicle that was struck by a truck from oncoming traffic in November 2011. The shooting took place just outside the church where his appearance had been planned. He performed the show but afterward, he collapsed and needed surgery to repair internal injuries.
Carman was diagnosed with multiple myeloma cancer in 2013 and was given a prognosis from three to four years of life. By early 2014, he said medical tests showed his body was free of cancer. He then began preparing for his Live Across America album and tour. Carman attributed his recovery to his supporters' faith when he went back to remission. He promised to his Facebook and Kickstarter followers that his "No Plan B Tour" would begin as soon as he recovered his health. He toured the eastern United States later this year.
Carman married Dana Morrow in December 2017, at the age of 61. Six stepchildren and nine step-grandchildren were among his new family's new children. In 2018, Carman filed for divorce, which was settled in 2019.
Carman's cancer had returned in January 2020. In June 2020, he revived live concert church tours.
After a series of challenges related from surgery to repair a hiatal hernia, Carman died on February 16, 2021 (28 days after his 65th birthday) in a Las Vegas hospital. His ex-wife, six stepchildren, and nine step-grandchildren all survived him.
Music and television career
In 1980, Carman made a custom album titled God's Not Finished with Me. In 1981, he was invited by Bill Gaither to tour with the Bill Gaither Trio.
After relocating to Tulsa, Oklahoma, Carman released a moderately successful eponymous debut album. Carman was later issued as Some-o-Dat in 1982. The album mostly contained novelty songs. With the release of his next album, Sunday's on the Way in 1983, Carman experienced a string of contemporary Christian music chart successes beginning with the title song. As he continued his music career, he established the nonprofit organization Carman Ministries. After the release of The Champion in 1985, Carman achieved his first number one song, by the same name. His first number one album on the Christian charts, Revival in the Land, followed in 1989.
Between 1987 and 1989, Carman was named Readers' Choice for Favorite Male Vocalist by Charisma magazine. In 1990 and 1992, Billboard named him the Contemporary Christian Artist of the Year. In 1995, he translated some of his songs, and released his first Spanish-language album, Lo Mejor. Heart of a Champion, a thirty-song retrospective was released in 2000.
Carman was nominated for four Grammys, and sold over 10 million records. It is believed he holds the world record for the largest single Christian concert in history. In August 1993, with more than 50,000 in attendance, Carman was the main act in Johannesburg, South Africa. The following year he performed a free concert at Texas Stadium October 22, 1994, with 71,132 attendees. Another concert had 80,000 in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Beyond his music career, Carman participated in various television productions and interview duties as a host, for both the Trinity Broadcasting Network and its flagship program Praise the Lord. In 2001, he starred in the film Carman: The Champion.
In late March 2013, Carman announced a Kickstarter campaign for a new album and music video. A short time later, he announced an upcoming sixty-city tour, noting that the online fundraising campaign had raised more than $230,000 within several weeks.
Carman's musical style has been described by Relevant magazine as "operatic, story-driven songs that often centered around cosmic battles between God and Satan, similar to Frank Peretti by way of Meatloaf."
