Carsie Blanton & her Handsome Band
10-21-2021
IMPORTANT NOTE: PROOF OF VACCINATION WILL BE REQUIRED FOR ENTRY TO THIS SHOW.
Carsie Blanton writes anthems for a world worth saving. Inspired by artists including Nina Simone and Randy Newman, her songs encompass a wide range of genres, from sultry pop to punk-tinged Americana. Whether alone with her electric guitar or fronting her four-piece “handsome band,” Carsie delivers every song with an equal dose of moxie and mischief, bringing her audience together in joyful celebration of everything worth fighting for.
Over the past dozen years, Blanton has been making music that personifies play. Her work has been called “impeccably catchy” by critic Robert Christgau, with musician John Oates admiring her songs’ “sly wit and urbane imagery” that remind him of Cole Porter. She’s toured across America and Europe sharing stages with Madeleine Peyroux, The Weepies and others.
Carsie Blanton's new album, "LOVE & RAGE" comes out on April 30, 2021. Featuring "Be Good" and "Shit List"
