Long ago and oh so far away . . . the world fell in love with the Carpenters and their era-defining repertoire of songs. Karen and Richard sold over a hundred million records in just over a decade and still hold the record for the most consecutive top-ten singles. The dynamic combination of Karen's voice and Richard's compositions and arrangements created Grammy-winning magic and won them a worldwide legion of loyal fans.

In "We've Only Just Begun: Carpenters Remembered", Michelle Berting Brett takes center stage accompanied by her 7-piece band of versatile Nashville musicians directed by Harry Sharpe. Sharpe and the band have worked with popular music icons including: Donna Summer, Wynonna Judd, Trisha Yearwood, Sara Evans, Alison Krauss, The Monkees, Bobby Caldwell, Tom Jones, Gloria Estefan, and Michael McDonald.

"We've Only Just Begun: Carpenters Remembered" re-creates the original sound of the Carpenters. In addition, Berting Brett shares stories culled from extensive research and interviews with those who knew Karen and Richard personally and professionally. The result is a family show and an intimate behind the scenes profile of the pop music phenomenon that defined an era, including "Close to You", "Yesterday Once More", "Rainy Days & Mondays", and many more!
