Next Stage Arts and Twilight Music present singer/songwriter Carsie Blanton and her trio.
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 “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.
Since releasing her first album in 2002, Carsie has recorded eight more albums, appeared on NPR’s Mountains Stage, and shared the stage with the likes of Paul Simon, The Weepies, and Shawn Colvin. In February 2011, she toured with Anais Mitchell’s “Hadestown,” playing the role of Head Fate. Fragile and strong, with lush and cheerful arrangements infused with jazz elements, Carsie’s 2021 album “Love and Rage” “is a reminder that the fight for racial and gender equity can – and should – have joyous moments” (NOLA).
