Dave Carter was born in Oxnard, California. Her father was a mathematician and a petroleum engineer and her mother was a science teacher and a charismatic Christian. Carter was raised in Oklahoma and Texas and would draw on her rural upbringing in many of her songs. She studied classical piano from age 4 to about age 12, when she took up guitar. At 17, she left home to hitchhike around the country, especially the Midwestern United States (Great Plains area). After graduating with degrees in music (cello) and fine arts from the University of Oklahoma, she moved to Portland, Oregon, where she continued her education at Portland State University, earning a degree in mathematics. She began an advanced degree in mathematics, but a personal epiphany led her to realize that this was not to be her field. She went on to study what she called “the psychology of mystical experience” at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology in Palo Alto and the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, and worked as an embedded systems programmer for several years before taking up music full-time in the mid-1990s. Carter was greatly influenced by mythologist Joseph Campbell, who visited her college, and American mystic Carlos Castaneda. She was also influenced by the American landscape, Arthurian mythology, the environment, and transcendental psychology.

Prior to her death, Carter released three albums with Grammer: When I Go (1998); Tanglewood Tree (2000); and Drum Hat Buddha (2001). The duo re- recorded many of the songs from Snake Handlin’ Man, plus two previously unrecorded songs, in early 2002. The CD, called Seven Is the Number, was released by Tracy Grammer in 2006.
