Ron Carroll is an American DJ, singer, songwriter and producer. He is primarily known in the house music circuit. Carroll has worked with many of house's most famous producers, including E-Smoove, Maurice Joshua and Bob Sinclar. He has also produced, usually with partner Spero Pagos, for other vocalists or his own songs.
Carroll was born in Chicago. As a boy, he learned to sing while a member of his church choir. As a teenager, he was a fan of rock band KISS, but became interested in house music when he attended a high school dance and spent time watching the DJ perform. Carroll started performing as a DJ in the late 1980s in a club he himself opened. He released his first official record, "My Prayer", in 1993. Because of his style of singing like a preacher, he received the nickname "The Minister of Sound".
In 2001 he opened his own label, Body Music Records. Carroll's activities as a singer in Europe brought him into contact with Dutch producer Jermaine Hardsoul in 2003, for whom he wrote and sang in "Back Together", followed in 2004 by "Wonderful World" for Bob Sinclar and Axwell, a track that appeared in Sinclar's album Western Dream.
