The Wood Brothers is a brilliant collaboration between vocalist and guitarist Oliver Wood (who fronts Atlanta-based blues band King Johnson) and upright bassist Chris Wood (of the genre-blasting trio Medeski Martin and Wood). The Wood Brothers’ folk and acoustic blues tunes, tinged with gospel hopefulness and country melancholy have received strong acclaim from fans and critics alike.

Carsie Blanton

Carsie is a young singer-songwriter who grew up in rural Virginia and landed in Philadelphia in fall of 2006. Since then, her soulful, playful, intelligent music has earned her national respect. In her brief time as a performing songwriter, Carsie has shared the stage with nationally hailed acts Amos Lee, Nellie McKay, John Oates and Leon Redbone, and frequented noteworthy venues from The Birchmere (Alexandria, VA) to the Hotel Café (Los Angeles, CA). In 2008, Carsie toured with Loudon Wainwright III, and with Blue Note recording artists The Wood Brothers.

In July of 2009, Carsie released her second album, Buoy, produced by pop/rock mogul Pete Donnelly. While Carsie’s songs tend to be personal and lyrically rich, this release strays from the folk tradition to bring out the soulfulness, passion, and pop sensibility in her work.
