SPECIAL! September 1 The Flashbacks

Blanton’s music smolders with moxie, settling in the pop realm, infused with jazz elements and even a little Broadway-style panache.

Her music is fun. It makes you laugh, it makes you dance. Carsie’s concert was rained out last summer so we wanted to bring

her back along with her two band members.Sponsored by Crunch Time Escape Room and Inspired Chaos.

A three-member, nonstop neo-vaudevillian stage show from Canada that features virtuosic musicianship, uncompromising vocal harmonies and humorous storytelling. It’s new music with an old soul, echoing vintage swing, blues, folk and ragtime – a unique musical experience that transcends genres.
