Carsie Blanton
︎ /// ︎ /// ︎ /// ︎
Carsie Blanton is a songwriter with hooks, chutzpah, and revolutionary optimism. “It is possible to face the world as it is - rapidly heating, ruled by grifters, ravaged by profitable wars - and still have hope,” she says of her 2024 release, After the Revolution. “Not the narrow, grasping hope you might hang on an election, but a patient, zoomed-out hope.”
Inspired by artist-activists including Nina Simone and Woody Guthrie, her catalog exhibits a wide exploration of genre woven together by humor, a fondness for classic melodies, and the spirit of punk rock.
After two decades spent on the road, Blanton has amassed a dedicated fan base and a small menagerie of viral hits (Little Flame, Rich People, Ugly Nasty Commie Bitch). 2026 will see heavy touring and two new releases, beginning with The Red Album Vol. II. on January 16th.
