Larry Carlton Net Worth:Larry Carlton is an American jazz, blues, pop and rock guitarist who has a net worth of $2 million. Larry Carlton was born on March 2, 1948 in Torrance, California. He started learning to play the guitar at the age of 6, under Slim Edwards near his home in Torrance.

In high school he developed an interest in jazz and his playing style was influenced by Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, Barney Kessel and BB King. He also cited saxophonist John Coltrane who impressed him. Before he fully transitioned to a solo career, Carlton became one of the most sought-after studio musicians of the past three decades. Carlton’s catalogue includes film scores, TV themes and work on over 100 gold albums. In the 70’s and early 80’s Carlton was a live musician in Los Angeles, recording up to 500 records a year, including with Steely Dan, Joni Mitchell, Billy Joel, Michael Jackson, Quincy Jones, The Four Tops, Christopher The album Cross and Barbra Streisand. In 1988, Carlton fell victim to random violence while composing his electric guitar LP On Solid Ground, being shot in the throat outside his private studio in California. The bullet broke his vocal cords and caused severe nerve damage. Carlton managed to recover quickly and complete On Solid Ground by the end of the year. In 1991, when he began recording a blues album, he continued to work on electric guitar, but decided to delay the project to meet the demand for a more commercial jazz product, which led to Kid Gloves. Released in 1993, Renegade Gentleman features Nashville, Tennessee-based harmonica player Terry McMillan on several tracks. From 1994 to 1997 Carlton went on various tours (most notably with Toto guitarist Steve Lukather) and released an album (Larry & Lee).

In 1997, Carlton replaced Lee Ritenour in Fourplay. Carlton went on to release solo albums and even joined Stillydan as a guest guitarist in 2009 on six tours. Carlton married contemporary Christian music artist Michel Pilar in 1987. He is the father of Katie Carlton and bassist Travis Carlton.
