Singer-songwriter Carsie Blanton has always been a little unorthodox. She grew up listening to Leonard Cohen and John Prine; by the time she was 11 she was digging up old jazz records. Her musical curiosity is what led her down the road to recording Not Old, Not New. "I'm interested in what I would call 'American popular song' — a lineage that runs from ragtime and early jazz all the way up to what's happening now, like Beyonce and Bruno Mars," she said. "What it all has in common is that it's about telling a story, in a way that anybody can understand, in three minutes." -- "This record is inspired by a brief moment in music, in the early '50s, just before bebop took over." she said. "A lot of great jazz vocal records came out at that time that were really relaxed, featured a lot of ballads, and weren't very improvisation heavy. I kept finding these recordings from that same time period—the Nat King Cole Trio recordings, Chet Baker Sings, Louis Armstrong Meets Oscar Peterson—and getting really obsessed with them." -- The result is a perfect pairing of Carsie’s smoky, torch-singer vocals—all lazy phrasings and textured intonations that recall those of Nina Simone and Billie Holiday—with the sultry, slow grooves of Not Old, Not New, giving the record a fresh, yet instantly familiar feeling.
