Montclair, N.J. — Outpost in the Burbs presents singer-songwriter Carsie Blanton on Friday, September 23, 2022 at 8:00 p.m. This concert will take place at the First Congregational Church, 40 S. Fullerton Avenue in Montclair.
Carsie Blanton is a songwriter with hooks, chutzpah, and revolutionary optimism. Inspired by artists including Nina Simone and John Prine, her music is a jaunt through American popular song, from sultry jazz to pop-punk protest anthems.
Her live shows seek to delight and galvanize, with her “Handsome Band” serving up juicy three-part harmonies and melodic bass lines to drive home each well- crafted refrain. A seasoned performer, she explores the political and the bur- lesque while bringing her audience together in humor, hope, and camaraderie.
Carsie’s forthcoming album, Body of Work, is an intimately-recorded collection of songs from throughout her catalog, produced by Tyler Chester (Madison Cun- ningham, Andrew Bird) and featuring fan-favorites such as Fishin’ with You and Smoke Alarm.
Carsie delivers every song with an equal does of moxie and mischief, bringing her audience together in joyful celebration of everything worth fighting for.
