The Carter Twins played at Julia Green Elementary School on Tuesday night to celebrate the school having the most participants of any Metro-Nashville Public School in the upcoming Country Music Marathon Kids Race. Talk about a great school assembly. The Carter Twins will be playing at the post-race concert, opening along with Ashton Shepherd for Billy Currington. Pretty cool!

We had been hearing rumblings about the Carter Twins and saw their first video on CMT this morning.

Check out the single “Heart Like Memphis” on their myspace page. We like it. What do you think?

Check out their bio below from their myspace page.

Growing up in Akron, Ohio, 18-year-old twins Josh and Zach Carter were surrounded by music from the time they were born. Their mother worked in country radio and encouraged their interest — Zach stole time at her piano, while she taught Josh “Stairway to Heaven” on the guitar. The family moved to Hilton Head, S.C. when the brothers were fifteen, and they continued to craft their musicianship playing hundreds of live gigs while juggling a busy high school schedule. In 2008, the Carter Twins were in Los Angeles performing and scored a chance meeting with an MTV exec, who ultimately led them to CMT. The brothers recently completed high school and moved to Nashville to pursue their music career full-time under the development of CMT. Still settling into their new digs, Josh and Zach spent the summer working with some of Music City’s best songwriters and crafting as many as 30 songs in just three months. Under the helm of Frank Rogers, Billboard magazine’s 1 country producer, the Carter Twins are working on their debut album for an anticipated release in Summer 2009.
